An extraordinary story about trees and their relationship to humans. The novel begins with the story of a chestnut tree in Iowa. It escaped the east coast chestnut blight by virtue of having been brought west in the pocket of a Swedish emigrant. Each succeeding chapter is about a person or persons whose lives were changed by a tree, until the book branches off into their efforts to save the Redwoods in California and Oregon. 

First published in hardback by William Heinemann in 2018. This is the first softcover edition published by Vintage in 2019.
