The Trees in My Forest

In a book destined to become a classic, biologist and acclaimed nature writer Bernd Heinrich takes listeners on an eye-opening journey through the hidden life of a forest.  

A lifetime observer of the natural world shares his vast knowledge and reflections on the trees of the Northeast woodlands and the rhythms of their seasons, from the DNA contained in an apple seed to the great branches beyond reach.

Trees, woods, forests, pines and apples, and Maine

I loved this book. Evocative of a wonderful childhood and a hopeful future with healthy trees and healthy woods and forests.

Relaxing, informative and entertaining

I enjoyed the short chapters about the authors tree forest and the peripheral subjects included in the book. I enjoyed the readers pace and tone throughout the story. It was nice to be educated while not being preached to, but entertained while learning. The books short chapters and overall reading time was a definite plus for me.
