DOWNLOAD EBOOK“A timely and much needed call to plant, protect, and delight in these diverse, life-giving giants.” —David George Haskell, author of The Forest Unseen and The Songs of Trees With Bringing Nature Home, Doug Tallamy changed the conversation about gardening in America. His second book, the New York Times bestseller Nature’s Best Hope, urged homeowners to take conservation into their own hands. Now, he is turning his advocacy to one of the most important species of the plant kingdom—the mighty oak tree. Oaks sustain a complex and fascinating web of wildlife. The Nature of Oaks reveals what is going on in oak trees month by month, highlighting the seasonal cycles of life, death, and renewal. From woodpeckers who collect and store hundreds of acorns for sustenance to the beauty of jewel caterpillars, Tallamy illuminates and celebrates the wonders that occur right in our own backyards. He also shares practical advice about how to plant and care for an oak, along with information about the best oak species for your area. The Nature of Oaks will inspire you to treasure these trees and to act to nurture and protect them.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn amazing book! I could hardly lay it down. It moves from marvel to marvel. The book of Acts is happening today much like it happened 2,000 years ago. The book reveals a world of miracles and the powerful working of the Holy Spirit. Its radical departure from the modern enlightenment world view where no miracles happen is refreshing!' David W. Shenk, consultant, Christian/Muslim Relations This book is powerful because it presents the faith and life of a human being who gave his life completely to Jesus and lives like that a marvelous story and a precious addition to the stories of men and women of faith whose lives tug at our deepest feelings, pulling us ever onward in our own walk with the Lord. Donald R. Jacobs, Missiologist Once or twice in a generation, a man or woman appears with such childlike faith, profound union with God that through their testimony we fall on our faces crying, The Lord, he is God! not many of us have walked that path of obedient, living faith so simply, deeply, and persistently as Gerbole Richard Showalter in the Foreword

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA Californian may vacation in Yosemite, Big Sur, or Death Valley, but many of us come home to an oak woodland. Yet, while common, oak woodlands are anything but ordinary. In a book rich in illustration and suffused with wonder, author Kate Marianchild combines extensive research and years of personal experience to explore some of the marvelous plants and animals that the oak woodlands nurture. Acorn woodpeckers unite in marriages of up to ten mates and raise their young cooperatively. Ground squirrels roll in rattlesnake skins to hide their scent from hungry snakes. Manzanita's rust-colored, paper-thin bark peels away in time for the summer solstice, exposing sinuous contours that are cool to the touch even on the hottest day. Conveying up-to-the-minute scientific findings with a storyteller's skill, Marianchild introduces us to a host of remarkable creatures in a world close by, a world that "rustles, hums, and sings with the sounds of wild things."
