The School Book of Forestry by Charles Lathrop Pack is a comprehensive guide to the principles and practices of forestry, written specifically for students and teachers of forestry. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the history of forestry, the structure and function of forests, the management of forest resources, the economics of forestry, and the conservation of forest ecosystems. It includes numerous illustrations, photographs, and diagrams to help readers understand the concepts presented. The book also includes a glossary of forestry terms and a list of resources for further study. Overall, The School Book of Forestry is an essential resource for anyone interested in the study and practice of forestry.Our forests are exposed to destruction by many enemies, the worst of which is fire. From 8,000,000 to 12,000,000 acres of forest lands annually are burned over by destructive fires. These fires are started in many different ways. They may be caused by sparks or hot ashes from a locomotive. Lightning strikes in many forests every summer, particularly those of the Western States, and ignites many trees. In the South people sometimes set fires in order to improve the grazing. Settlers and farmers who are clearing land often start big brush fires that get out of their control.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
