Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Ash is a beautifully illustrated account of the botanical and
cultural faces of the ash tree. The book maps the tree's evolution
and geographical spread across the entire Northern Hemisphere over
the last 44 million years, and describes the 43 species that grace
the planet today. Edward Parker also explores the botany, cultural
history and medicinal uses of the tree, from its significance in
ancient Indo-European cultures, to its remarkable properties in
treating Alzheimer's disease. In addition he looks at topical
issues, such as the devastating effects that the spread of the
emerald ash borer beetle and the ash dieback fungal infection are
having on Northern Hemisphere forests.
