Abstract

As a landscape ecologist conducting research on eastern forests for the US Forest Service eg wwwnrsfsfedus/atlas I was eager to learn about how the eastern National Forests came to be as these forests now play such an important part of the natural world and provide a large carbon sink The book did not disappoint and I’m confident that it will be informative and interesting to a large swath of people with interests in the eastern US landscape or environmental historyThe book is divided into two parts 1 how the eastern National Forests were established and 2 discussion of key issues facing these forests today In the first the authors do an excellent job of presenting the history of deforestation in the East the consequences of such rapid deforestation including raising alarm to some key people and the movement to create national forests out of the ruins
