Forests are a crop, a treasury, and a trust. Charles Lathrop Pack, one of America's great conservation champions, wrote this clear introduction to how forests live and how we keep them: the life of a tree, enemies from fire to insects, replanting and wise harvest, and why a nation's woods matter to every citizen. Written in the 1920s as conservation took hold, it remains a bracing primer on thinking generations ahead. For tree lovers and future stewards of any age. Walk the woodlot and learn what it is worth.
