She is passionate about ‘continuing education’ in the widest sense, and cooperates with historians, archaeologists and land managers whether in meetings, outdoor studies or oral history. Ruth’s many and varied publications are intended to be interesting and useful to rural residents and also to specialists. Her travels in the UK, Europe and North America have informed her experience of woodlands, wildlife and cultural heritage. Having followed closely the long and heated debates on the new and vast, post-War conifer plantations in the uplands of the UK and Republic of Ireland, Ruth decided the time had come to bring together the story of Sitka spruce’s ecology and historic links with people in its native Pacific Coast North America, with its contrasting story in a new home in the archipelagos of north-west Europe.ver menos
