Eyewitness: Tree

An original and exciting look at the fascinating world of trees. One of the most beautiful parts of our landscape, trees are rarely seen close up because of their height. Stunning real-life photographs of leaves, flowers, fruits, and bark offer a unique view of trees, from their leafy boughs to their roots beneath the soil. See a seed grow into a sapling, the changing colors of the Fall, and buds bursting into leaves. Learn how a tree breathes, how to identify trees, and how bark defends trees from attack. Discover how the wind pollinates catkins, how rubber is tapped from tree trunks, and much, much more!David Burnie is the author of 'Eyewitness: Tree', published 2000 under ISBN 9780789458209 and ISBN 0789458209.
