It focused a lot on trees and individual species of trees and economic possibilities for trees. Which makes sense, I guess, but I think of a forest as an ecosystem, and only one chapter dealt with that point of view. The author literally couldn't see the forest for the trees. But I learned things and it was a fairly good read. ( ) This was an interesting book. Hidden Life of Trees was written from a botanist's point of view, while this was more from an economist's point of view. He stated how they were managing the forests for lumber production and value than from the forest community view. I enjoyed the history of the forests in the U.S. and what it was like when the colonists began populating the continent. It was well written and kept my interest throughout.

In any given year, millions of people visit one or more of the 154 national forests in the United States, not to mention the hundreds of thousands who spend some time in the private forests of the nation. All of them - hikers, hunters, fishermen, campers, and canoeists - are drawn to the woods for some special reason. Yet few of them see the forest as a whole, as the web of life it truly is. Here, from New York Times bestselling author Richard M. Ketchum, is the extraordinary story of forests and the trees that comprise them. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
