  • Description: (i) THE wise use and the conservation of the wealth of timber still existing in the United States are promoted by a presentation of the history, by a trained economist, of the effects of legislation and Government administration on the ownership and management of American forests from Colonial days to the present time. The author calls it "a story of reckless and wasteful destruction of magnificent forests, and of flagrant and notorious thefts of public lands." The picture, however, is not so dark as this, though the account of the frauds perpetrated under cover of the Free Timber and the Stone and Timber Acts of 1878, and of even later legislation, is very startling.
