Tobin Mitnick, JewsLoveTrees creator and shameless tree lover, leads you, the tree-curious, through the wonderful world of North American trees with fact, opinion, and humor.
InMust Love Trees, Mitnick invites you toshare his deeply personal connection to our forest companionsin ways that expand the storied genre of nature writing. From an imagined dialogue with the world's oldest bristlecone pine, to the minutiae of tree huggability, to the emotional toll of taking up the practice of bonsai, this fresh take into the world of trees is divided into three equally humorous and insightful sections.
The first section discusses Mitnick's personal opinions and relationship with trees while the second section describes the science behind trees (from tree botany to tree biology to tree ecology). In the final section, Mitnick answers the question: Who would these trees be if they all attended high school together? Tobin'sdetailed description of a tree in actionand histhorough run-down of our most-treasured North American trees(all100of whom happen to be classmates at"Tree High North America"), makes this compilation an original and occasionally outlandish guide for both the budding and seasoned tree-lover.
