"Spoiler alert: forests migrate. They are on the move away from danger and always have been. Now, these are not the dour-faced Ents of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, who are downright speedy compared to the agonizingly slow march of Earth’s trees and forests. But the journeys of trees, and the forces that drive that titular phrase, are an engrossing tale of nature’s survival, the increasing speed of climate change and of the people working to preserve these most ancient creatures. Author and reporter Zach St. George presents a thoroughly researched story about what we can learn from some of Earth’s oldest residents if we just stop and listen."
