Indian Trail Trees

This was a book that talked about Indian Trail Trees. Indian Trail trees are going extinct because of deforestation and also the land is changing. Trial trees were trees that Indians used to mark trails to find water and other things. They did this by tying down young saplings with rope pointing in the direction of the way they wanted to go. They were permanently growing like that and when they were old enough they would cut the strings off. This book talked about the history of these trees and pictures of them and where they were found. I liked this book showing the history of an almost lost art in the world that is disappearing fast.
