Excerpt from Timber Resources for America's FutureThe report of the Timber Resource Review is in the nature of a State-of - the-union message by the Forest Service on our national timber supplies. This comprehensive appraisal of the timber situation in the United States was started early in 1952. About a year and a half was devoted to planning the project, a year to field surveys and collection of data, a year to compila tion, interpretation, and preparation of the pre liminary report, and another year and a half to review and revision of the preliminary report and preparation of this final report.The Timber Resource Review is the latest in a series of overall timber appraisals in which the Forest Service has shared. The most recent one prior to this study was in 1945. One of the unique features of the present undertaking is that it was planned and executed in the field with the wide spread collaboration of a great number of States, forest industries, and individuals. Although this has engendered some delays, they have been more than offset by better planning, by more intensive surveys than the Forest Service could have under taken by itself, and it is hoped by more widespread understanding and acceptance of the findings.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
