Fig trees are wish-fulfillers, rainforest royalty, and more precious than gold, and Ladders to Heaven tells their incredible story. They have affected humanity in profound but little-known ways, such as feeding our pre-human ancestors, influencing diverse cultures, and playing a key role in the birth of civilization. They also helped restore life after Krakatoa's eruption and proved instrumental in Kenya's struggle for independence. Figs now sustain more species of bird and mammal than any other fruit, offering hope in a time of falling trees and rising temperatures.
