Daniel Lewis’s love of trees is deep rooted. He’s an environmental historian who knows not just about tree biology, but the ways in which trees have been inextricably bound to human history – and are essential to our future.
Daniel joins co-host Leoneda Inge to talk about two trees native to North Carolina – the longleaf pine and the bald cypress – and how they have helped shape the South. He is speaking this evening at the Forest History Society in Durham.
