### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Re-creation of an enviable journey
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2008*

All trees are fascinating both from a biological point of view and a geometric one. But at least for this reviewer, there is no tree on Earth that holds as much fascination as the baobab. The author of this book clearly holds the same opinion, and with his commentary and the beautiful photos takes readers on a journey that they is the next best thing to the enviable journeys that the author has taken for real. One could only imagine the awesome and humbling feeling one would get standing in the presence of the baobab, with reports of the girth sometimes reaching 77 feet.But the author also reminds us that the beautiful can also be practical, as he describes the baobab as being a "godsend to the poor": its flowers and foliage can be eaten as fresh salad, and its bark can be made into roof tiles or rope.With six species living in Madagascar and the other two in Africa and Australia, the author gives brief explanations as to why they exist in regions thousands of miles apart. Some of these reasons are anecdotal, with the author favoring one based on the mobility of their seedpods.The future of the baobab is probably at the same level of certainty as other flora occupying their same habitats. The author addresses its survivability in the book. Maybe the techniques of genetic engineering can assist in their survivability in environments in which they are not custom. Whatever techniques are used, it is imperative that the baobab be encouraged to flourish. Its beauty alone gives it infinite utility.

    Pays nice homage to beautiful tree
  

*by M***K on Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2022*

Beautifully illustrated with original photos by the author.  This book provides a brief "biography" about this most exotic and wonderful tree and a was a very pleasant read.  Would be great as a coffee table book.
