HOW TO FALL IN LOVE WITH OAKS

Oak: The Frame of Civilization

By William Bryant Logan Published by W. W. Norton & Company, 336 pages, 2006 I highly recommend you read this book, even if you don't have room or inclination to plant oaks yourself. It's a superbly written tale that spans thousands of years of history and cultures around the globe. You'll never look at an oak tree the same again.

And you don't know where it might lead you. One weekend tagging along on a quest for lost oaks, plus this book had me hooked on all things Quercus.
