Trees and Forests of America

Tim Palmer

 A must  read  -  a  journey through great   forests.

 

 With  brilliant  photographs  and a clear  voice,   Tim Palmer  guides the reader  through a majestic  American  landscape,   on a journey   of  beauty  and a story of our connectivity  and  interdependence   on  forests and their ecosystems.  By looking at our forests  through  a visionary  artist’s eyes   I  discovered    many   new  things   about   the complexity   and beauty old growth  trees,  the threats  to these systems as well as the immense  problems these systems can solve for humanity.    Tim’s story talks  about the mystery and importance of  these diverse systems  and the simple grace  of a walk in the woods.  The photographs  of the soul of each  spectacular  forest would   be reason  enough  to  spend time wandering  through this book,   but  the  story is equally compelling   .

 

 This is a must read for water boards,   zoning   and  planning   commissions,   and Sunday school classes seeking to learn more about creation;  it is a  book  for hunters,  fisherman,  birders and all who enjoy,   or remember   the  joy,  peace  and beauty of  a forest.  This  book  shows us

 

how  we are  all  interconnected   to  our  forests.   Tim also has a book on  the Rivers of America  that is equally as splendid.
