About the Author

A journalist by training, Menninger is a master storyteller, recounting in colorful lay language the botanical complexities of his cherished fantastic trees. He documents both individual trees which have been shaped by environmental stress, and species that have adapted over time to odd patterns when faced with the challenge of survival.
