In Part 2 of a series exploring woodlands and war, we look at the history of the environmental damage of war, and its impact on woodlands in particular.

In France, Vietnam, and Britain, woodlands have played crucial roles as sites of, resources for, and means of recovery after warfare.

How has war altered these landscapes? What pressures shape their restoration, and do human beings recover alongside them?
