Trees are much older than man: they have been around for hundreds of millions of years. Long before the last ice age hit Europe, the land here was covered with lush forests. Without trees, the human race could not have survived. Andreas Hase introduces twenty-six of the most important tree species for human history and culture, gives a biological description of their parts, writes about the ways in which seeds spread, the use of wood and other tree gifts in human economic activity, the etymology of some names, and the beliefs associated with trees. "Trees not only give us excellent fruits, we are served not only by their leaves, flowers and roots - without them we would not have tools, houses, fences, bridges, books and much more. Trees protect people from the unpredictable events of nature, from frost and heat, from floods and drought. Without trees we would be nothing, we need them like air, so it is not surprising that on all continents, in all civilizations, in all peoples, in the great myths associated with the history of mankind, always talks about the tree." (Andreas Hase)
