Ash, baobab, ceiba, sandalwood, oak, date palm or banyan: what do these trees have in common?
They are all considered sacred by the traditional peoples of certain regions, or have been in the past.
What exactly do these trees represent, Why were they venerated and what can they offer us today?
Embark on a journey around the world to discover 25 trees that have marked the history and shaped the conception and understanding of the world of numerous civilisations. A fascinating anthropological exploration of mythological and sacred trees on five continents. What are these sacred trees, what is their history, the legends attached to them, and how are they used or valued today? This book sets out to re-enchant our relationship with trees, shedding new light on a number of species that we know little about, but which have left a lasting mark on the history of peoples and continents.
Foreword by Charles Hervé-Gruyer, founder of La Ferme du Bec Hellouin and author of books about the Earth.
