This 17th-century luminary was not only a gardener, royal advisor, and precursor of the modern environmental movement, but he was also the author of exceptional works of horticulture. The greatest of these is \u003ci\u003eSylva: A Discourse of Forest Trees\u003c\/i\u003e, published in 1664; it is among the first books in English to show an appreciation of the aesthetic value of trees and the benefits of planting them to shape the landscape. Maggie Campbell-Culver's book might be described as a stroll through the woods in the company of the great man, as between them they give us illuminating portraits of 30 well-loved trees.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Transworld Publishers Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47019311169776,"sku":"9781903919477","price":41.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781903919477_p0.jpg?v=1766596033","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781903919477","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
