A beautiful and inspiring book which will appeal to fans of Meetings With Remarkable Trees. At
once autobiography history a traveller's tale and a work of natural history it was Deakin's
last book before his death in 2006. From the walnut tree at his Suffolk home Deakin embarks on
a quest that takes him through Britain across Europe to Central Asia and Australia in search
of what lies behind man's enduring connection with wood and trees.
