Paperback. Condition: Very Good. As the oldest living inhabitants on the planet, trees have played a major part in the way we live today, providing both the daily oxygen we breathe and the foundation of our nations heritage. Every native tree in Britain, whether its part of a grand avenue, a thriving hedgerow, an ancient wood or a colourful orchard, tells a different story. The Trees That Made Britain takes us on a journey of discovery to every corner of the nation. Through detailed portraits of individual tree species, author and photographer Archie Miles reveals the stories of the trees that have influenced the culture, myths and fabric of the nation. The book is full of surprising facts on how trees have been used by man over the centuries, from the oak used in the building of HMS Victory to ancient longbows made from yew, as well as practical advice on visiting some of Britains finest living examples. The combination of rich historical material and lyrical descriptions captures the essence of our native tree species. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

The Daily Telegraph noted: Miles's new book Hidden Trees of Britain, he quotes a writer from the 1940s sniffily opining on these "depressing" and "sordid" ancient trees of Savernake Forest. "Isn't it funny," says Miles, as we crunch through fallen twigs and bracken in search of further aged specimens, "how attitudes change." He says one of the reasons for doing the book was to "fire people up" to go out and find old trees. "Here we are in the Savernake, for instance, but how many people rushing past in their cars ever get out and seek the amazing jewels that are tucked away in the forest?" You certainly don't have to stray far from the road to find creakingly venerable examples of oak and beech pollards, awesome and eerie in the forest gloom. It's a natural habitat for Miles, who since his majestic work Silva: the Tree of Britain hit the bookshelves in 1999, has been able to make a living buzzing around Britain photographing trees, and whose picture archive numbers around 30,000 images ."
