Review:

Editor's pick: Dazzling photographs of tree bark from all over the world. --Bookseller

At first I thought this to be an unusual concept for a book, but as soon as I opened it I was blown away by the breathtaking images. This large, 10x13 inch book is truly a treat for the eyes. It is alive with the stunningly rich colours and amazing textures and patterns of some of the most beautiful tree bark from around the world. -- Outdoor Photography
