It is the english version of a title that has made the history of the publishing house and which still attracts a lot of interest among readers and the media, which have sanctioned the international fame of this extraordinary biodiversity experience. Thus, more than 30 after the birth of "Arboreal archeology" - currently a non-profit foundation supported by the University of Perugia, Bioversity International, Fao - the story of the two plant seekers, Livio and Isabella, and their ancient fruit varieties has become a reference point for fans, including famous actors, including Gerard Depardieu, Valeria Ciangottini, Anna Galiena, Bill Pulman, who have adopted some plants of this extraordinary open-air museum.

Today the estate gathers hundreds of fruit trees; some varieties dating back to the Renaissance or even older, and in this english  edition, integrated and updated, the characteristics, properties, stories, recipes of the most important varieties are told.
Dedicated to our
beloved Mary Rice.
