How to Read a Tree: The Sunday Times Bestseller
£9.95
Do two trees ever appear identical? No, but why? Every small difference is a clue.
Each tree we meet is filled with signs that reveal secrets about the life of that tree and the landscape we stand in. The clues are easy to spot when you know what to look for, but remain invisible to most people.
As the author of the international bestsellers The Walker’s Guide and How to Read Water, Tristan Gooley knows how to uncover the phenomena worth looking for. He has been instructing people in the art of reading trees for two decades and this book includes signs that will not be found in any other book in the world.
‘Wherever you are – city or wilderness – if you want to understand the secrets of trees you pass, this is the book to read. . . Tristan has the rare gift of explaining the most complex ideas with humour and deep insight.’ – Peter Thomas, Emeritus Reader in Plant Ecology at Keele University

Gooley drops learning as lightly as blossom falls in spring.' - John Lewis-Stempel'Tristan Gooley has done trees the greatest service.' - Isabella Tree'It was a lightbulb moment! I thought I knew my local woods - I walk there almost every day. But it's a thrill to see it through fresh eyes, to develop a much deeper understanding.' - Peter Gibbs, Chair of BBC Gardeners' Question Time
