Remarkable Trees of the World pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
The Spirit of Nineteenth-Century naturalistic investigation lives in British historian Thomas Pakenham, who has spent the last two decades chronicling the lives of the world's most dramatic trees, many of which are in danger of destruction. In Remarkable Trees of the World, Pakenham takes us on a breathtaking voyage across four continents, introducing, with a passionate text and stunning photographs, trees of amazing personality and presence: dwarfs, giants, monuments, and aliens; the lovingly tended midgets of Japan; the enormous strangler from India; and the 4,700-year-old "Old Methusalehs." American readers will be fascinated by Pakenham's first examination of North American trees, including the towering redwoods of Sequoia and Yosemite, the drooping cypresses in Monterey, the gaunt Joshua trees of Death Valley, and the bristlecone pines discovered in California's White Mountains. Remarkable Trees of the World is a magnificent work that will be treasured for generations by all those who marvel at the wonders of nature.
