FYI for all Tolkien, tree and of course Ent fans, there is a beautiful new illlustrated book out by a British tree historian who is also a Tolkien fan. The title is "Remarkable Trees of the World" by Thomas Pakenham. There are a couple of references to Tolkien, Ents and even the dwarf Gimli. But I would not buy the book just for those acknowledgements, it is a beautiful homage to some rare and endangered giants. It is printed by Norton press. Thanks to Fatty for the news.
