I spent quite a bit of time during the last stages of lockdown working on texts for "THE TREE BOOK: THE STORIES, SCIENCE AND HISTORY OF TREES" – a new book from Dorling Kindersley in their characteristic style. It was great fun to research and write, and, in the end, I contributed almost quarter of the text, so am honoured to be credited as "lead author". The book looks even more handsome and engaging in print than it did when I was working with PDFs of the pages, and I am sure it will sell well (and I'd be delighted if you ordered your copy from Amazon through adverts in the right hand column of my web pages).
