{"product_id":"the-ancients-andrew-darby-9781761069239","title":"The Ancients","description":"Deep in Tasmania's remote valleys and mountains grow trees whose direct ancestors lived with dinosaurs. Many are thousands of years old, some over ten millennia. Prize-winning nature writer Andrew Darby takes us on an island odyssey to discover these ancient survivors: the mysterious King's Lomatia, perhaps the oldest single tree alive; the primeval King Billy, Pencil and Huon pines with their stories of human admiration and destruction; and the majestic giant eucalypts. He shares tales of the scientists and nature-lovers who identified these ancients and now work to protect them from climate change and fire, offering hope for their future.","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51535902146848,"sku":"9781761069239","price":14.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/the-ancients-andrew-darby-9781761069239","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
