This book is the culmination of a course run by the Centre for Extra-Mural Studies – A Tree Appreciation Course. The participants of the course were very enthusiastic, and they exchanged notes on the trees they had seen – along with photographs and seed, flower and leaf collections. Their joy was infectious, and we decided to publish a booklet on the trees of Mumbai to accommodate their creativity. The idea has grown big, just as a huge tree would grow out of a tiny seed; here is then a coffee table book saluting the real Sentries of Mumbai, which we are happy to present to all tree lovers everywhere.
