Broome dedicates individual chapters to each species, weaving together research, personal observations, and musings on both their spiritual importance to our lives and their place in folklore and history. Chapter on \u201celm,\u201d for example, portrays how during the medieval period, the tree may have kept the residents of the small town of Senarpont, near Paris, safe while Black Death ravaged Europe. The famous yew bows of the victorious English archers at the Battle of Agincourt, meanwhile, helped change the course of European history. She discusses how the tree runes impart wisdom, healing, and spiritual guidance, helping a person reach a more harmonious inner life. This beautiful work that\u2019s both comprehensive and rests firmly on a solid foundation of knowledge, deserves every plant lover\u2019s attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Talking Forest<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Tree Runes for a New Millennium<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Kay Broome<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Talking-Forest-Tree-Runes-Millennium\/dp\/1777117011\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Talking-Forest-Tree-Runes-Millennium\/dp\/1777117011\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Buy now<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pub date May 9, 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ISBN 978-1777117016<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price $25.00 (USD) Paperback, $7.99 Kindle edition<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fun, accessible, and exceptionally crafted\u2026 Broome meticulously explains entire mythology and history of native Canadian trees in her user-friendly and fun-to-read debut.
