A CLASSIFIED LIST OF AMERICAN LITERATURE ON 

 FORESTRY SUBJECTS FOR GENERAL READING 

 AND REFERENCE. 



John M. Briscoe, M. F., Professor of Forestry. 



The Forestry Department receives frequent requests for in- 

 formation as to the best books and publications on various 

 forestry subjects. Many who can not spare the time to take a 

 full course at the University are, nevertheless, desirous of 

 obtaining more or less complete information on some particular 

 phase of the subject in which they are most interested. Others 

 wish to read up in preparation for a more complete study at a 

 later date. Since correspondence courses in this subject have 

 never proved satisfactory and have been discontinued, this list 

 has been prepared especially for those who wish to take a course 

 of selected reading on the subject of Forestry. 



Since foreign publications are not generally available even in 

 the Public Libraries of rural communities, the list has been 

 confined chiefly to American books and publications. It makes 

 no pretension of being complete, but is intended to be merely 

 suggestive. 



The works are classified under the following headings for the 

 convenience of the non-technical reader, so that he may refer to 

 any branch of the subject which he wishes to investigate: 



Care of Trees 



Dendrology — (Tndentification of Trees) 



Economics 



General 



History 



Identification of Wood 



Lumbering (Utilization) 



Management 



Measurements 



Physiography
