Uncover remarkable trees from around the world, many of which have borne witness to key moments in history or reached a scale and age that have allowed them to become a part of history themselves.   \"[A] rich history ... it contains some of the most extraordinary tales of trees through time\" -  The Sunday Post First meet ' Methuselah ', a bristlecone pine in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, believed to be 4,900 years old. Learn about trees which have inspired great events, such as the  Isaac Newton apple tree  in Lincolnshire, where the famous scientist observed an apple falling from a tree (which still stands in the family garden). Other flora has withstood historic events such as in Japan, where the  Hibaku jumoku  still grows as a survivor tree from the Hiroshima bombing and the  9\/11 Survivor Tree  in New York City. Many trees continue to inspire our world today including the long avenue of beech trees in Northern Ireland known as the  Dark Hedges  which  Game of Thrones  fans will instantly recognise as the road to Kings Landing, the  Robin Hood's oak  in the Sherwood Forest or the  J. R. R. Tolkien trees  in Avebury, which inspired the Ents in  The   Lord of the Rings . Rest a while beside the oldest trunks and witness the enthralling stories nestled within the branches of these gentle giants.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48939053187291,"sku":"9780008622411-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/bbcf0106-6aa4-476f-97e5-ce7b5ba9d605_7fbd41d0-bdcd-4613-8b65-c656f1f74356.jpg?v=1783138992","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780008622411-secondhand-the-history-trees-extraordinary-tales-of-trees-through-time","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
