Reviews of Living With Trees
Review by Max Porter (author of 'Grief Is The Thing With Feathers)
​
Living With Trees by Robin Walter
‘I’d really like to ask some kindly philanthropist to buy a copy of this book for every household in the UK. Very important, beautifully produced, a bible of Common Ground’s research and ongoing progressive intent as regards wood, forestry, biodiversity and trees as community in this country.’ ~ Max
​
Max Porter wrote these kind words as he recommended LWT for the XR Rebel Library.

“The book’s great strength is that it is written by a forester, whose pragmatic, honest, insightful approach says it as it is.”

"Crikey, what huge breadth Robin Walter covers in the 200+ pages of his book, the latest contribution by Common Ground to helping its readers explore the relationship between people and the natural world."
