Summary

Connor shows us New England trees evolving amidst a succession of human cultures, from Archaic Indians who crafted canoes from white birch and snowshoes from ash, to colonists who built ships of oak and pine, to industrialists who laid railroad tracks on chestnut timber, to tanners who used hemlock bark to treat shoe leather for the Union army.
