Toutes les capitales du monde s’enorgueillissent de leurs trésors et offrent à leurs citoyens et aux citoyens du monde une vitrine des beautés urbanistiques, architecturales, artistiques ou naturelles participant de leur identité nationale. Le patrimoine naturel de la région de la capitale du Canada ne fait pas exception. Sa conservation et son embellissement ont été confiés à la Commission de la capitale nationale qui, ici, met en valeur l’un de ses plus précieux héritages vivants : ses arbres remarquables.

Pour souligner la diversité biologique et quelques raretés des arbres de ce territoire nordique, le livre nous ramène volontiers à son histoire géologique, aux premiers peuples qui nous ont transmis leurs connaissances des arbres, à l’immensité des forêts de feuillus nobles qu’on a tôt fait d’exploiter et d’exporter. Il traverse ainsi le temps, racontant les travaux de scientifiques visionnaires déterminés à améliorer la rusticité des arbres jusqu’aux défis de conservation actuels face à l’urbanisation et aux changements climatiques.

En somme, ce livre est une invitation à venir rencontrer nos plus beaux et nos plus exceptionnels spécimens arborescents.
