Wildwood – A Journey Through Trees

˜Wildwood’™ is about the element of wood, as it exists in nature, in our souls, in our culture and our lives.”So said Roger Deakin of this, his last book, that was published posthumously; a marvellous piece of natural history and cultural writing, it is an unmatched exploration of our relationship with trees.From the walnut tree at his Suffolk home, Roger Deakin embarks upon a quest that takes him through Britain, across Europe, to Central Asia and Australia, in search of what lies behind man’™s profound and enduring connection with wood and with trees. Meeting woodlanders of all kinds, he lives in shacks and cabins, travels in search of the wild apple groves of Kazakhstan, goes coppicing in Suffolk, swims beneath the walnut trees of the Haut-Languedoc, and hunts bushplums with Aboriginal women in the outback.Part autobiography, history, traveller’™s tale and also an incisive work of natural history, it will take you into the heart of the woods, where we go ‘˜to grow, learn, and change’™.
