Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the administrative and protective aspects of the U.S. Forest Service, providing a snapshot of forestry in the early 1900s. The author, then-Forest Service head Henry S. Graves, analyses the state of the forests at the time of transfer from the Department of the Interior, and details the work done to modernise and improve their management. The book examines the system of protection and regulation of the national forests, describing the work of the forest rangers and guards, and the re-fighting efforts. It also explores the role of the Forest Service in developing the practice of forestry throughout the United States through field and laboratory investigations, cooperation with States and private owners, and the diffusion of knowledge to the public. Graves details the progress made in bringing the forests under control, reducing waste, and improving utilization. He argues that the Forest Service's work is essential to preserving the nation's forests and ensuring their continued productivity. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of forestry in the United States, and for those seeking insights into the challenges and successes of managing vast public lands.
