No two trees are identical. Each one is filled with signs about its life and the landscape in which it stands - invisible to most people, but easy to spot when you know what to look for. In this book, discover the simple principles that explain the shapes and patterns you can find in trees and what they mean. Learn skills that can be applied every time you pass a tree, whether you are in town, countryside or wilderness - and never look at a tree the same way again.
