Omschrijving

The Succession of Forest Trees and Wild Apples is a natural history book written by the American transcendentalist author and philosopher Henry David Thoreau. Originally published in 1887, the book explores the complex ecological relationships between different species of trees and plants in the forests of New England. Thoreau's observations and insights are based on his extensive walks and explorations of the woods around his home in Concord, Massachusetts.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the succession of forest trees, or the process by which different species of trees replace each other over time. Thoreau describes the different stages of forest growth, from the early stages of pioneer species like birch and poplar to the mature forests dominated by oaks and maples. He also discusses the role of fire, wind, and other natural disturbances in shaping the forest ecosystem.The second part of the book is a study of wild apples, which Thoreau calls ""the most valuable of all our wild fruits."" He explores the history and folklore of the apple, as well as its role in the ecology of the forest. Thoreau also discusses the different varieties of wild apples, their uses and flavors, and the ways in which they have been cultivated and hybridized over time.Throughout the book, Thoreau's prose is lyrical and evocative, capturing the beauty and intricacy of the natural world. He also reflects on the deeper philosophical and spiritual meanings of his observations, drawing connections between the natural world and human experience. The Succession of Forest Trees and Wild Apples is a classic work of American nature writing, and a testament to Thoreau's deep love and reverence for the natural world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
