This book reveals a "green" city of the Ponant with ramparts surrounded by elms since the 17th century, parade grounds bordered by orderly malls or citrus crops evoked from the 19th century.
A political tree, an exotic tree, a tree of secularism and hygiene (...), this book explores the historical and symbolic place of trees in Brest through numerous iconographies. At the same time, it invites visitors to discover Brest's contemporary green heritage through illustrations by Paul Lornet, landscape architect.
