About this product

Product Information

Celebrating our long and deep cultural relationship with trees and woods, this poetry anthology reminds us of humans' love of trees, our dependency on them and our long history of woodland conservation. The book also aims to inspire people to take care of them for the sake of our environment, as most of our ancient woods have been felled. The author believes that if we are to combat local pollution, make even the slightest impact on global warming, enjoy our surroundings and share them with many other creatures, we need trees for their longevity, their beauty and their generosity. With over 170 poems, the anthology includes well-known works by Blake, Tennyson and Wordsworth as well as less familiar ones from 20th century poets: Ted Hughes, Sylvia Plath, Denise Levertov, Andrew Motion, Wendell Berry and Gary Snyder.
