Reviews
"Ever looked at an old tree and wondered what it would say if it could talk? Just us? This fascinating photography book tells the story of 57 ancient and culturally significant trees from around the world." --Marie Claire "a stunning book called Wise Trees, which charts historically and culturally significant trees, from California to India.It features images taken by photographers Diane Cook and Len Jenshel, who spent two years travelling the globe to snap pictures of 59 extraordinary trees." Daily Mail"Landscape photographers Diane Cook and Len Jenshel spent two years travelling to 59 locations across five continents to photograph some of the world's most historic trees. Their work is documented in the book, Wise Trees. While we pass many trees every day, we rarely stop to appreciate their beauty and significance. The book is an ode to trees - they can live without us, but we cannot live without them. Not only do they provide us with the oxygen we breathe, food gathered from their branches, and wood for both fuel and shelter, but they have been essential to the spiritual and cultural life of civilisations around the world. The book is thought-provoking and beautiful." Psychologies magazine

Synopsis
Leading landscape photographers Diane Cook and Len Jenshel present Wise Trees --a stunning color-photography book containing more than 50 historical trees with remarkable stories from around the world. "The photographers sought out 'inspirational trees--ones that had witnessed history, survived calamities, or were the focus of spiritual veneration' and found over 60 examples from around the globe." -- Los Angeles Times Foreword by Verlyn Klinkenborg Supported by grants from the Expedition Council of the National Geographic Society, Diane Cook and Len Jenshel spent two years traveling to 59 sites across five continents to photograph some of the world's most historic and inspirational trees. Trees, they tell us, can live without us, but we cannot live without them. Not only do trees provide us with the oxygen we breathe, food gathered from their branches, and wood for both fuel and shelter, but also they have been essential to the spiritual and cultural life of civilizations around the world. From Luna, the Coastal Redwood in California that became an international symbol when activist Julia Butterfly Hill sat for 738 days on a platform nestled in its branches to save it from logging, to the Bodhi Tree, the sacred fig in India that is a direct descendent of the tree under which Buddha attained enlightenment, Cook and Jenshel reveal trees that have shaped our lives, our traditions, and our feelings about nature. There are also survivor trees, including a camphor tree in Nagasaki that endured the atomic bomb, an American elm in Oklahoma City, and the 9/11 Survivor Tree, a Callery pear at the 9/11 Memorial. All of the trees were carefully selected for their role in human dramas. This project both reflects and inspires awareness of the enduring role of trees in nurturing and sheltering humanity. Photographers, environmentalists, history buffs, and nature-lovers alike will appreciate the extraordinary stories found within the pages of Wise Trees !, Leading landscape photographers Diane Cook and Len Jenshel present Wise Trees - a stunning photography book containing more than 50 historical trees with remarkable stories from around the world.

- 1***n (1383)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufI always buy OluKai sandals this was a really good deal with fast shipping ,THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
- s***h (2495)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufMy purchase was cancelled by the Seller, citing "problems with the buyer's address." Since I've got eBay 2500 purchases, all to that same address, I was a bit doubtful as to the honesty of that answer. And when I looked at the listing a few days later I noticed that the item involved was "out of stock." I really wish eBay would start to penalize Sellers who list items that they don't have; affording Buyers a few of the protections given to Sellers. BTW, be careful purchasing from this Seller
