Remarkable Trees of the World - Thomas Pakenham

Descriere Remarkable Trees of the World - Thomas Pakenham

In a handsome paperback volume with flaps, Pakenham embarks on a five-year odyssey to most of the temperate and tropical regions of the world to photograph 60 trees of remarkable personality and presence. \n \nMany of these trees were already famous--champions by girth, height, volume or age--while others had never previously been caught by the camera. Pakenham's five-year odyssey, sweating it out with a 30 pound Linhof camera and tripod, took him to most of the temperate and many of the tropical regions of the world. Although North American trees dominate this book, Pakenham also trekked to remote regions in Mexico, all over Europe, parts of Asia including Japan, northern and southern Africa, Madagascar, Australia and New Zealand. \n \nRemarkable Trees of the World is a lavish work that will be treasured for generations by all those who marvel at nature.
