Product Information
An appreciation of the beautiful, iconic, and endangered Eastern Hemlock and what it means to nature and society The Eastern Hemlock, massive and majestic, has played a unique role in structuring northeastern forest environments, from Nova Scotia to Wisconsin and through the Appalachian Mountains to North Carolina, Tennessee, and Alabama. A "foundation species" influencing all the species in the ecosystem surrounding it, this iconic North American tree has long inspired poets and artists as well as naturalists and scientists. Five thousand years ago, the hemlock collapsed as a result of abrupt global climate change. Now this iconic tree faces extinction once again because of an invasive insect, the hemlock woolly adelgid. Drawing from a century of studies at Harvard University's Harvard Forest, one of the most well-regarded long-term ecological research programs in North America, the authors explore what hemlock's modern decline can tell us about the challenges facing nature and society in an era of habitat changes and fragmentation, as well as global change.

Reviews
"[This volume] is a [synthesis] of scientific literature into an enjoyable reading for those not trained in the scientific method and technical writing."--Katherine Elliott, Center for Forest Watershed Science, USDA Forest Service, "For any lover of the eastern forest, the decline of the noble hemlock is a hard story to hear; told here , by a group of the forest's foremost chroniclers, the story acquires a majesty worthy of its subject."--Bill McKibben, author of Eaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet, "The hemlock tree warns of globalization of pests and diseases, subverting the future of all forests. This most meticulous ecological study uses archives, archaeology, pollen analysis, and trees themselves."-Oliver Rakham, author of Ash, "[This volume] is a [synthesis] of scientific literature into an enjoyable reading for those not trained in the scientific method and technical writing."-Katherine Elliott, Center for Forest Watershed Science, USDA Forest Service, "I absolutely loved this book! Hemlock is a fascinating blend of science and the people who conducted that science."-Alan White, University of Maine, "The authors combine science, history, a strong sense of place, and personal reflection to tell the story in a way that is unlikely to be told for many other species or places."? Ecology, "[This book] has the potential to serve as an important, even landmark volume, about the landscape history of New England and North America in general."-Margaret Lowman, author of Life in the Treetops and It's a Jungle Up There, "You'll learn much about hemlocks that will make your time in the woods richer and your knowledge of ecological history deeper . . . This book is not a reiteration of facts and figures, but a well-written portrait of hemlock, its role in New England's forests, and the lives and character of the foresters and other scientists who have studied it."-- Northern Woodlands, "A beautiful portrait of an evocative forest giant, full of insights into the practice of science, and the lives of trees, people and landscapes in a changing world."--Peter Crane, author of Ginkgo: The Tree that Time Forgot, "For any lover of the eastern forest, the decline of the noble hemlock is a hard story to hear; told here, by one of the forest's foremost chroniclers, the story acquires a majesty worthy of its subject."-Bill McKibben, author of Eaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet, "For any lover of the eastern forest, the decline of the noble hemlock is a hard story to hear; told here , by a group of the forest's foremost chroniclers, the story acquires a majesty worthy of its subject."-Bill McKibben, author of Eaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet, "[This book] has the potential to serve as an important, even landmark volume, about the landscape history of New England and North America in general."--Margaret Lowman, author of Life in the Treetops and It's a Jungle Up There, "The hemlock tree warns of globalization of pests and diseases, subverting the future of all forests.

This book was listed as brand new in mint condition but iarrived with an absolutely filthy cover with pages coated in mold. After contacting the seller for a refund, I was offered a $5 discount to keep the book. This book is disgusting and I can’t fathom how a $5 discount would resolve that. I’ve asked to return the book and receive a full refund and I’m waiting to hear back from the seller. Sub par customer service and an item not in the condition represented = do not recommend seller.
