Description

Standing tall on the sunburned plains of Africa and Australia, baobabs may be one of the oldest life forms on the planet. Many of the specimens still standing today have been around for over 2000 years. Tremendous in size and bizarre in appearance, they have provided food, medicine, and places of refuge and worship for countless peoples. This is a wonderfully interesting book for all those who love trees and nature.
