Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Oak Chest, Vol. 1 of 3: A Tale of Domestic Life When Sir Walter Scott wrote his first great romance, called "Waverley," he added to the title, as has been common in title pages and police reports, what is called an alias, saying, "Or, 'Tis sixty years since." The words were very significant even then; but they imply much more at present. Within the sixty years then just gone past, many vast changes had taken place in the politics, the manners and the customs of the world. The term comprised a great epoch in the history of society. But within the sixty years now just past, how much greater has been the change! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Witness Tree written by Lynda Mapes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate look at one majestic hundred-year-old oak tree through four seasons--and the reality of global climate change it reveals. In the life of this one grand oak, we can see for ourselves the results of one hundred years of rapid environmental change. It's leafing out earlier, and dropping its leaves later as the climate warms. Even the inner workings of individual leaves have changed to accommodate more CO2 in our atmosphere. Climate science can seem dense, remote, and abstract. But through the lens of this one tree, it becomes immediate and intimate. In Witness Tree, environmental reporter Lynda V. Mapes takes us through her year living with one red oak at the Harvard Forest. We learn about carbon cycles and leaf physiology, but also experience the seasons as people have for centuries, watching for each new bud, and listening for each new bird and frog call in spring. We savor the cadence of falling autumn leaves, and glory of snow and starry winter nights. Lynda takes us along as she climbs high into the oak's swaying boughs, and scientists core deep into the oak's heartwood, dig into its roots and probe the teeming life of the soil. She brings us eye-level with garter snakes and newts, and alongside the squirrels and jays devouring the oak's acorns. Season by season she reveals the secrets of trees, how they work, and sustain a vast community of lives, including our own. The oak is a living timeline and witness to climate change. While stark in its implications, Witness Tree is a beautiful and lyrical read, rich in detail, sweeps of weather, history, people, and animals. It is a story rooted in hope, beauty, wonder, and the possibility of renewal in people's connection to nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Old Shropshire Oak, Vol. 1 What are the headings of all these chapters for, and all these collected extracts?' I replied, The dream about the Old Oak of which I wrote, I am going to commit to paper. I have many cares and troubles in my vocation, and it will tend to ease them. There is nothing like a book, and a pen, and a garden to divert the mind. Bed a rose, prune a tree, dig a trench, or clean a flower border, and it is astonishing what relief it will give to a troubled spirit. It brings a man to himself, and Nature is beautiful always, even if the world is cross-grained, crooked, and awry. Horace had a good notion of this when he thus commenced his epistle to his steward, and you, as a scholar, will anticipate the words.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The 1940 Oak Neath trees of majestic height and grace, We have wiled away happy hours. The highway beyond the lawns with their century-old trees hums with activity while upon this campus away from the noise of the streets live students in a veritable world of their own. One season gives way to another, and so it is with the years, yet the only change in the hearts of those who know these grounds intimately is the thought that the campus grows more and more beautiful. Never to be forgotten are the smooth lawns, brilliantly green under summer's heat, crisply white with winter's frost. 'neath the whispering and the rustling oak and linden trees which line the Presidential Walk leading to stately Whitney House, sunshine and shadow have mingled. Brilliant days change into starry nights. Winding paths lead to the turfed natural amphitheatre and to the tennis courts clustered among tall oak trees. Tucked away are many secluded nooks offering solitude and inviting meditation at nightfall - to dream, to speak idle words, to hope. In the spring, bright, well-cared-for gardens of yellow daffodils, laven der iris, and red tulips enhance the beauty of the campus. Lovely pink laurel blossoms in the spring near the dormitory bearing its name. The beauties of nature manifested at each season of the year cannot be surpassed - the change in the spring from yellow to pink and to the final summer dress of brilliant green, the change in the fall from multi-colored hues to the subsequent white of winter. Throughout the years, foot steps tread the winding paths, climb the steps of the Colonial buildings. These very footsteps may fall in distant climes, but never will they find greater satisfaction and pleasure.
