About the Author

Reviews

Clearly written, well-illustrated, and impressively broad-ranging in its methodology. The footnotes and bibliography make it an invaluable resource for further study.
*PARERGON*

Della Hooke's book is the first large-scale treatment of its subject, and could hardly be surpassed in its patient and thorough accumulation of data. Lovers of trees and students of early England have equal reason to be grateful to her.
*TIME AND MIND*

An enjoyable read and [...] a useful addition to our understanding of pre-Medieval landscapes.
*SCOTTISH FORESTY*

To look at any tree after reading [the] book is to have a clearer grasp of what someone might have made of it (literally and metaphorically) a thousand years ago.
*SALON*

An enormously detailed and authoritative study [which] has much to offer Anglo-Saxon scholarship. [...] An excellent volume.
*LANDSCAPE HISTORY*

[A] well-written and thoughtfully constructed book.
*MEDIEVAL ARCHAEOLOGY*

[A] deeply researched and engagingly written book.
*THE MEDIEVAL REVIEW*
