More about the book

Exploring the significance of trees in urban landscapes, this book highlights their dual role as both natural elements and historical markers. It traces the origins and stories of various trees in India, from those planted by notable figures like Sarojini Naidu to colonial rulers, illustrating how they shape city identities. These trees serve as memory keepers, representing cultural heritage and history, while also providing essential ecological benefits. Ultimately, they are portrayed as nature's museums, embodying the complex relationship between humanity and the environment.
