Forests are restless. When a tree dies or a new one sprouts, the forest that includes it shifts. When new trees sprout in the same direction, the whole forest begins to migrate, sometimes at astonishing rates. Today, however, an array of obstacles\u2014humans felling trees by the billions, invasive pests transported through global trade\u2014threaten to overwhelm these vital movements. Worst of all, the climate is changing faster than ever before and forests are struggling to keep up.\nA deft blend of science reporting and travel writing, The Journeys of Trees explores the evolving movements of forests by focusing on five trees: giant sequoia, ash, black spruce, Florida torreya and Monterey pine.
