These great trees of the mountains, i feel they know me well, as i watch them and listen to their secrets, happy to rest my head beneath their outstretched arms.? A little girl climbs up a rambling old tree, picking its fruit, playing with the squirrels and birds that call it home, finally dozing off on its strongest, most comfortable branch as a gentle breeze plays through its leaves?pure bliss! How dull, dreary and dusty life can be without the verdant foliage of trees. In Great Trees I Have Known, experience the best of Ruskin Bond?s writing about trees, from the majestic deodars to the delicate willows. With a wide range of stories and essays on the idyllic and lush world of trees, this collection is a must-have for those who love nature and Bond?s writing alike.
