Discover the hidden world of urban trees. This beautifully illustrated guide reveals the fascinating stories behind 20 common tree species found in cities across the UK.

With its unique blend of practical identification and lyrical storytelling, Sylvan Cities is an essential companion for anyone who's ever wandered through a city's streets and admired the quiet beauty of its tree-lined avenues.
