Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an impressive survey of forests, woods, and woodlands in Ireland during the 1800s. The author, who spent decades working in his field, provides a historical overview of the topic, in addition to various schemes for forest improvement. He provides landowners and foresters with the tools to develop and improve their own estates, encompassing crucial topics such as climate, soil types, types of trees indigenous to the area, and which trees are most suited to each environment. While providing substantial plans for owners to enhance their property, this book also discusses the significance of improving Ireland's vast, undeveloped waste lands, and how doing so could drive down the price of foreign timber, while improving the local economy, and assisting the poor and unemployed. The author's profound and practical understanding of woodland management provides important insights into the development of forestry in Ireland, and could be of benefit to modern landowners and conservationists.
