Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the historical ecology of American chestnut, a species that once thrived in the forests of eastern North America. Exploring the chestnut's journey from its post-glacial migration to its decimation by blight in the early 20th century, the author draws from pollen…records, historical documents, and ecological studies. The narrative highlights the species' unique distribution patterns, shaped by climate and pollination mechanisms.
