William Bryant Logan's enthusiasm is contagious, his knowledge jaw-dropping. He has poured heart and soul into this beautiful book, his writing poetic but also practical, hopeful, brilliant. Logan is the Bernd Heinrich of trees. His work is heroic. When the book ends I am an unremitting, fiendish tree nerd. I had no idea I would fall this hard., If you feel profound respect and affection for trees, maybe even a touch of awe, then you'll find a kindred spirit in William Bryant Logan...Logan takes us around the globe to show how woodlands have supported human life, and how humans, in turn, have cared for woodlands. We are the richer for the understanding he shares with us., Infused with intimately detailed attention to science and culture, this deeply nourishing book invites us to reclaim reciprocity with the living world. Logan reminds us of our capacity for 'a life where head, heart, and hand'--and tree--work together., William Bryant Logan's vision of a world inwhich humans and trees work together to mutual benefit--a world that hasexisted in the past and can exist again in the future--is cause for deep joy,for celebration and hope., Bryant knows trees, and much more. Tree lovers--even those who consider pollarded trees ghastly and strange--will be drawn in by Bryant's vast cultural and scientific references, and charmed by passages that read like prose poems., [Sprout Lands] changed the way I think about pruning, and actually about trees in general in the most profound way., Logan's words are full of beauty, awe, and practical wisdom. At a time when forests are in crisis worldwide, his call to deeper, more intimate connection with our leafy cousins is both timely and important. Logan breaks out of the false dichotomy between romanticized protection and selfish exploitation of trees, showing that careful, enlightened blades and flames give life to people, trees, and community., Born from years of active relationship withtrees, Logan's words are full of beauty, awe, and practical wisdom. At a timewhen forests are in crisis worldwide, his call to deeper, more intimateconnection with our leafy cousins is both timely and important. Logan breaksout of the false dichotomy between romanticized protection and selfishexploitation of trees, showing that careful, enlightened blades and flames givelife to people, trees, and community., William Bryant Logan's vision of a world in which humans and trees work together to mutual benefit--a world that has existed in the past and can exist again in the future--is cause for deep joy, for celebration and hope.

Synopsis
Once, farmers knew how to make a living hedge and fed their flocks on tree-branch hay. Rural people knew how to prune hazel to foster abundance: both of edible nuts, and of straight, strong, flexible rods for bridges, walls, and baskets. Townspeople cut their beeches to make charcoal to fuel ironworks. Shipwrights shaped oaks to make hulls. No place could prosper without its inhabitants knowing how to cut their trees so they would sprout again. Pruning the trees didn't destroy them. Rather, it created the healthiest, most sustainable and most diverse woodlands that we have ever known. In this journey from the English fens to Spain, Japan, and California, William Bryant Logan rediscovers what was once an everyday ecology. He offers us both practical knowledge about how to live with trees to mutual benefit and hope that humans may again learn what the persistence and generosity of trees can teach., Winner of the 2021 John Burroughs Medal for Distinguished Natural History Writing "This deeply nourishing book invites us to reclaim reciprocity with the living world." ?Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of Braiding Sweetgrass

- c***t (921)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.Catland by Hughes, Kathryn, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US (Nr. 356798982438)
