Join us for

A FOREST JOURNEY

An evening with noted author John Perlin

Forests Forever Foundation is hosting two evenings with John Perlin this May in celebration of his recently enlarged and updated edition of A Forest Journey: The Role of Trees in the Fate of Civilization, published by Patagonia Books.

Join us in Berkeley or Novato to hear from John as he discusses how trees have changed the world over the last 385 million years, the central role of wood in the rise and fall of civilizations, humankind's destructive impacts on the world's forests over the last 6000 years, and why forests are vital for the survival of all of us today.

Following John's presentation he will be signing books.

Books will be available for a donation of 10% off the retail price.

All proceeds will benefit Forests Forever Foundation, a tax-deductible non-profit organization.

Already own a copy? You are welcome to bring it with you for John to sign.

A Forest Journey was recognized by Harvard University as one of its One Hundred Great Books. Anthropologist and best-selling writer David Graeber compared it to "some Greek epic poem spanning 4000 years of civilization."
