Description
A spectacular time-lapse portrait of humankind and our impact on the natural world, The Tree and the River is a wordless epic that invites readers to pore over densely packed visual drama. Borrowing from multiple cultures and architectural styles, the acclaimed creator of the Journey trilogy invents astonishing new humanscapes, tracking the evolution of our species and its toll on the Earth. A lone tree and an enduring river bear silent witness over time as people arrive to harness water, wind, and animals; devise technology and transportation; redirect rivers; and reshape the land. This book is a timely and ultimately hopeful exploration of our shared world, inviting readers to uncover sophisticated layers of meaning and marvel at intricate details, from holographic billboards to flying machines.
