  • Description or summary of the audiobook: 'If you have a feeling for the mystery and enchantment of the woods, you will want to own this book.' - Outlook.Assembled from an enormous range of sources, this fascinating book is a mind-expanding compendium of facts, folklore, superstitions, myths, and anecdotes about trees and the forest. Included are descriptions of old forests; forest customs, temples and sacred groves; mythical forest creatures such as witches, fairies, demons, wood spirits, the 'wild huntsman,' and wood nymphs.The author also recounts facts and fables about individual trees, including famous trees throughout the world, unusual trees, tree worship, people's transformation into trees, and disposal of the dead in trees - as well as folklore about fossil trees, tree bark, leaves, thorns, diving rods, and Yule logs.This long-unavailable treasury of legend and lore will be welcomed by naturalists, anthropologists, students of folklore, and general readers alike. 'A work which the curious will love to consult ... a book which should be in every upper school library, and at the hand of every one to whom reference to such things is important.' - Saturday Review.
