About the Book: Cities and Canopies : Trees In Indian Cities
Native and imported, sacred and ordinary, culinary and floral, favourites of
various kings and commoners over the centuries, trees are the most visible signs
of nature in cities, fundamentally shaping their identities. Trees are
storehouses of the complex origins and histories of city growth, coming as they
do from different parts of the world, brought in by various local and colonial
rulers. From the tree planted by Sarojini Naidu at Dehraduns clock tower to
those planted by Sher Shah Suri and Jahangir on Grand Trunk Road, trees in India
have served, above all, as memory
