Timber is a book written by James Rae Baterden that explores the history, science, and cultural significance of timber. The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different aspect of timber. Part one delves into the history of timber, tracing its use by ancient civilizations and its role in the development of modern societies. Part two explores the science of timber, including the biology of trees, the process of harvesting and processing timber, and the environmental impact of timber production. Part three examines the cultural significance of timber, including its use in art, architecture, and design. Throughout the book, Baterden provides a comprehensive overview of the many ways in which timber has shaped human history and continues to play a vital role in our lives today. With beautiful illustrations and engaging prose, Timber is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the natural world, history, or design.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
