Atlantic Hazel: Scotland's Special Woodlands

Sandy Coppins, Brian J. Coppins

Atlantic Hazel Action Group

2013

"This book aims to change the way people think about hazel and in particular the hazel woods along the Atlantic seaboard. Until recently, most ecologists perceived hazel as just a coppiced shrub, the commonest component of the underwood in our widespread and enduring coppice-with-standards silvicultural system, and dismissed the hazel-dominated woods of the north and west as scrub – if they recognised them at all. Here, however, we are presented in a lavishly illustrated form with a more discriminating view, which sees the Atlantic hazel woods as a distinctive and highly signifcant type of woodland, the rain forest – no less – of the British Isles."
