It is a book about the ancient woodlands, as well as the more recent forests of Britain.
It is written by Peter Fiennes, and focusses on some of the species that have been around for the longest. It would sit nicely with some of the other tree related books I have mentioned before on the blog.
There are plenty of possible locations for field visits here too - and I hope that young people explore woodlands as part of their teaching.
The image shows a useful chapter on the importance of trees in cities. Regular readers will know of the the vital part that trees play in ensuring lower temperatures, and the link with the London National Park City campaign.
