When Amy Stewart discovered a community of tree collectors, she discovered that the urge to collect trees springs from something deeper and more profound: a longing for community, a vision for the future, or a path to healing and reconciliation. Stewart brings us captivating stories of people who spend their lives in pursuit of rare and wonderful trees and are transformed in the process. Features fifty vignettes of remarkable people, interspersed with side trips to investigate famous tree collections, arboreal glossaries, and even tips for "unauthorized" forestry.
