DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Giant Sequoias of California High in California's Sierra Nevada stand nature's forest masterpieces remnants of once widespread forests that covered a large portion of the Northern Hemisphere. Today but a relatively few of the giant sequoias 1 remain to interpret the past and give promise to the future. Although these forest monarchs have created great interest, aroused much speculation, and resulted in many stories since their earliest discovery, they continue to be among the mysteries and wonders of nature. The human tongue, gifted as it is, has failed to describe adequately their towering majesty and solemn beauty. As individuals, and as members of a forest community, they stand supreme - the largest and perhaps the oldest living things on earth.
