The Journey of Trees takes what might be a dry subject—the migrations of forests and trees—and turns it into a compelling listening experience. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss Daniel Henning’s animated narration of Zach St. George’s collection of stories, adventures, and scientific studies. Henning gives a nuanced performance as the author tackles the effects global warming is having on the forests, and tells the stories of how naturalists, scientists, and corporations are endeavoring to find solutions.
