AMERICAN FORESTRY

terest is described. The author, while not 

 slighting scenes already made delightfully 

 familiar by many writers, has sought to 

 give emphasis also to regions of which 

 little has been said -among others, the 

 great National Forests, whose beauties were 

 seen in the course of more than three thou- 

 sand miles of travel far from railroads; the 

 National Parks and Monuments, especially 

 those opened in recent years, including 

 Zion Canyon, that wonder of Southern 

 Utah, which but one recent volume has 

 touched upon; the deserts which silently 

 and compellingly call to the traveller who 

 hurries across them by train; and the 

 amazing lava-built regions of Central Ore- 

 gon, east of the Cascades, which will be 

 better known to Americans when there is 

 a through railroad from Klamath Falls to 

 the Columbia. 



History of the First Battalion Old Tenth 



Engineers (Forest). 



With cordial acknowledgment by "Sub- 

 marine Pete" to all of the men who helped 

 in its compilation as a foreword, the "His- 

 tory of The First Battalion Old Tenth En- 

 gineers" steps out a book which will find 

 a warm place in the heart of every man 

 lucky enough to count himself a member 

 of the "Old Tenth." It was from the Tenth 

 that the Twentieth sprang that magnifi- 

 cent organization known as the largest 

 regiment in the world, with a record of 

 production and achievement behind the 

 lines never before equalled in the history 

 of any war. This roster, or history will 

 offer a pleasant reminder of their days in 

 sunny (?) France to the men of the Old 

 Tenth. That they "produced the goods" is 

 unquestioned, their contribution toward 

 victory was vital, and their necessity to the 

 success of the cause over there attested by 

 the fact that "General John J. Pershing 

 handed us the flowers in General Orders 

 after every big drive." The book is a 

 creditable piece of work, in keeping with 

 the men whose deeds it records. 



Guide to Yosemite, by Ansel F. Hall, Sunset 

 Publishing House. 



Every lover of the great out-of-doors 

 looks forward to the time when he may 

 have the time and money to see some of the 

 natural beauties and grandeurs to be found 

 in the National Parks. It is, of course, diffi- 

 cult for him to choose between these best 

 pieces of nature's handiwork but because 

 of the concentration of natural wonders 

 within its borders and the rugged grandeur 

 of its granite peaks Yosemite will certainly 

 be among the first two or three to be con- 

 red. When he does go to this wonder 

 spot among the people's playgrounds, he 

 will find this little pocket volume of nine- 

 ty-eight pages a constant pleasure and a 

 veritable mine of information. Mr. Hall 

 has been a ranger in the National Park 

 Service since his graduation from the Uni- 

 versity of California Forest School in 1916.

 or related subjects upon request. EDITOR. 



He knows the great park intimately from 

 the flower carpeted valley to the peak of 

 Cloud's Rest, and the hand-book reveals 

 this knowledge at every turn of the page. 

 After a few pages of entertaining descrip- 

 tion of notable features and brief historical 



data, the first half of the book takes up in 

 ordet the six principal road trips which can 

 be made within the park starting at Yose- 

 mite Village. Each one of these trips is 

 described in detail and prominent and in- 

 teresting points to be seen while on the
