Beth Moon's fourteen-year quest to photograph these remarkable trees has taken her to remote locations across the globe, from isolated mountainsides to the midst of civilization.

Each tree is accompanied by a narrative caption that describes its natural and cultural history, while Todd Forrest provides a concise introduction to the biology and preservation of ancient trees. This unique collection offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of tree photography and the challenges and potential of capturing the beauty of these natural wonders.
