Abstract
THIS book may be regarded as one of the most informative works on some important branches of forestry which has appeared. Carefully prepared for the United States and profusely illustrated, Prof. Westveld's work will well repay a study far outside that country. This is not a treatise on sylviculture pure and simple; the word ‘applied’ in the title is doubtless intended to correct such a diagnosis.
Applied Sylviculture in the United States
