From the first meeting, there grew a strange sense of attachment I did not consciously recognise until I later began to realise the significance that trees, and oak trees especially, can have in our lives.''\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJames Canton spent two years sitting with and studying the Honywood Oak. A colossus of a tree, it would have been a sapling when Magna Carta was signed. Initially visiting the tree for escape and solitude, in time he learns to study it more closely. He examines how our long-standing dependency on oak trees has developed and morphed into myth and legend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Oak Papers\u003c\/i\u003e is a stunning, meditative and healing book about the lessons we can learn from the natural world, if only we slow down enough to listen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57339842986366,"sku":"NW9781838851514","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781838851514.jpg?v=1778700583","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-usa\/products\/oak-papers","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
