More about the book

Exploring the interplay between language, nature, and history, the book presents a poetic journey through the significance of hazel trees, represented by the term "Halse." Divided into three sections—Halse, Col, and Hassel—it traverses diverse geographic and linguistic landscapes. Beginning with Exmoor tree names and concluding with Lorna Doone, it shifts from a Celtic tree alphabet to the dominance of hazel in Atlantic woods. The narrative also addresses environmental changes post-WWI, culminating in the discovery of hidden whitebeams in Avon Gorge.
