This magnificent hardbound book, filled with well-known photographer Jane English's color photographs, is a testament to what white pine means to many different people. Not easily fitting any category, the book is more than natural history, memoir, anthology, and coffee-table book, it is an invitation to know the deep satisfaction of understanding that we are part of the living community of "All Our Relatives" - clouds, plants, rivers, humans, rocks, animals, birds, trees, wind, and more. In this book with writings and images by over 20 people, the author draws these writers and readers together into a human community, much as white pine draws the wild occupants of the North Woods together into a natural community.
