Of four billion trees that once dominated the Eastern Forest, only an isolated few survived the early 20th century Chestnut Blight. Through back-crossbreeding The American Chestnut Foundation is giving the tree another chance. "Mighty Giants" tells the Big Story in the words of over 25 contributors from Henry Ward Beecher, Henry David Thoreau, newspaper journalists, and Foxfire interviewees, to Nobel Laureates Jimmy Carter and Norman Borlaug, chestnut scientists, and Barbara Kingsolver (from "Prodigal Summer"). Profusely illustrated with photographs both historic and modern, maps, charts, paintings and sketches. Full color throughout. Indexed.
