The Secret Life of Trees: How they live and why they matter

Colin Tudge travels from his own back garden round the world to explore the beauty, variety and ingenuity of trees everywhere: from how they live so long to how they talk to each other and why they came to exist in the first place.

Lyrical and evocative, this book will make everyone fall in love with the trees around them.
