DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from British-Grown Timber and Timber Trees: Being a Concise Description of Each Species, Together With Notes as to Their Value for Ornamental and Economic Planting, Including an Account of the Soils Suited to Their Cultivation, the Uses to Which the Timber Is Applied, the Current Value of the Wood The value of home-grown timber for the purposes of the architect and builder has, in the past, been but little recognised, the reason being that foreign wood, seasoned and converted for immediate use, is obtainable in such vast quantities and at so reasonable a price that the necessity for utilising to the fullest the resources of our woodlands has never before arisen. Since the days of the "wooden walls of old England," when British Oak played so important a part, home-grown timber has been but little appreciated, and has in the main only been utilised for the commoner or less important purposes to which it can be applied on the farm and estate. To those who have little interest in our home woods and their resources, such a statement may appear strange; and all the more so as it is universally admitted that Oak and Ash timber of native growth are superior in lasting properties to any that has been sent from abroad, and that native Birch and Beech are quite equal to foreign importations, while several of our coniferous woods, when matured and seasoned, have been found of the greatest value for general constructive purposes.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom the author of Earth: An Intimate History, an exuberant "biography" of four acres of woodland, evoking a cosmos of living and inanimate things and imagining its millennia of existence A few years ago, award-winning scientist Richard Fortey purchased four acres of woodland in the Chiltern Hills of Oxfordshire, England. The Wood for the Trees is the joyful, lyrical portrait of what he found there. With one chapter for each month, we move through the seasons: tree felling in January, moth hunting in June, finding golden mushrooms in September. Fortey, along with the occasional expert friend, investigates the forest top to bottom, discovering a new species and explaining the myriad connections that tie us to nature and nature to itself. His textured, evocative prose and gentle humor illuminate the epic story of a small forest. But he doesn't stop at mere observation. The Wood for the Trees uses the forest as a springboard back through time, full of rich and unexpected tales of the people, plants, and animals that once called the land home. With Fortey's help, we come to see a universe in miniature.
