The book is a tribute to the man who dedicated his life to planting trees. According to him planting trees was in his blood. It was a legacy he inherited from his grandmother and which he thought it was his mission to give to the younger generations. The development of a society and its people is intrinsically linked to its environment as man is just a small part of the larger matrix of the cosmos, according to Baker. If man wants to make progress, he must focus on conservation of the flora and fauna around him.

Shri Sunderlal Bahuguna has paid a befitting tribute to the greatness of this one human being and his
impact on the world.
