The Songs of Trees: Stories from Nature’s Great Connectors by David George Haskell, Author  |

The Archipelago of Hope: Wisdom and Resilience from the Edge of Climate Change by Gleb Raygorodetsky, Author


“Here is a book to nourish the spirit. The Songs of Trees is a powerful argument against the ways in which humankind has severed the very biological networks that give us our place in the world. Listen as David Haskell takes his stethoscope to the heart of nature – and discover the poetry and music contained within.”

―Review by Peter Wohlleben, author of The Hidden Life of Trees

“When Indigenous Peoples meet one another for the first time it’s as if we’ve always known each other. Gleb’s powerful and knowledgeable book captures that essence and the intimate ties we have to our Mother Earth. This book is like reading my own ancestry. We say that ‘all things are connected’ and these stories show us how related we all are.”

―Review by: Patricia Cochrane, Inupiat Eskimo, Executive Director Alaska Native Science Commission
