Had to take a break midway through this one because my library loan ran out but it was totally worth the wait!

It contained good information, but at times it dragged and didn't always hold my attention. I would have liked (even) more content on the work the author had done throughout her life.

I was so pleasantly sus prises to discover this book. So many of the books written about Celtic culture and history are fabrications. The author has an inspiring story, and her call to action is a meaningful one. I recommend to anyone engaged in cultural self-study and interested in how connecting to our roots can help us battle back against the environmental destruction we are facing.

Interestingly divided between memoir and tree guide, I found I got the most out of the trees as seen through the Celtic Alphabet in the second half of the book. But, that's not to say there wasn't treasure to be found in the first part. It really served to convey the credibility that Diana has in putting forth this somewhat lost knowledge. And, in that I think, it serves it's purpose well. It was a great lens to see a glimpse of another way of living. That being said, most of my notes came from the wonderful description and medicinal uses of the sacred trees described at the end.
