Ruins and Old Trees, Associated with Memorable Events in English History
Mary Roberts and William A. Folkard
Some trees have stood so long they have watched history happen beneath them. Mary Roberts gathers England's memorable ruins and ancient trees, from Glendower's Oak and the yews of Skelldale to the vast Chestnut of Tortworth and Wallace's Oak. History told through stone and timber. Stand beneath the trees that outlived the events they witnessed.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
