The Arbornaut: A Life Discovering the Eighth Continent in the Trees Above Us

Ginger says: I happened upon this nerdy book written by the “real-life Lorax” Meg Lowman in a used bookstore in Northampton, Massachusetts, and couldn’t resist buying and adding it to my TBR list. Lowman is an explorer of the “eighth continent”: a region ranging from the trees in Australia to the American northern Pacific region to the Scottish highlands to India to Malaysia. The publisher bills this as part-memoir and part-field manual and I’m all in.
