Our trees are among our greatest natural treasures. In this book, botanical painter Susan Ogilvy and forester Richard Ogilvy explore the trees of Britain through their leaves. From the water-loving alder to the long-lived yew, Susan paints every tree's leaf or needle in exquisite detail, at exactly life size, while Richard explores the trees’ natural history, the landscapes they grow in and the ways we use their timber, leaves, flowers and fruit in craft, industry, food and medicine.
 
An informative delight for tree-spotting beginners and seasoned naturalists alike.
