Greenhouse Environmental Humanities Book TalksAnna Burton – Trees in Nineteenth-century English FictionAnna Burton, teaching fellow at University of Liverpool (UK), joined the Greenhouse environmental humanities book talk series to discuss her book Trees in Nineteenth-Century English Fiction: The Silvicultural Novel (Routledge, 2021) on Monday, 6 September 2021.
