The vast boreal forest spans a dozen countries in the northern regions like 'a scarf around the neck of the world,' making it the planet's largest land biome. Besides providing homes for a diversity of species, this spectacular forest is also vitally important to the planet's ecosystem. This beautifully written book explores this special wilderness on a tour of the forest throughout the four seasons, from one country to another. Evocative watercolour and collage artwork provides a rare glimpse of one of the world's most magnificent places.
