Abstract
A SMALL brochure has been issued by the Department of Forestry, Oxford, at the instance of Prof. Troup, entitled The Natural Woodlands of Britain and Ireland by Dr. Mark L. Anderson, at the time sylvicultural research officer at the Imperial Forestry Institute (Holywell Press, Oxford, 1932). In a preface, Dr. Anderson states that though detailed information exists on this subject in certain parts of the country he had to draw to some extent on his own experience, which, it may be added, is extensive, in order that the general survey should cover the whole of the British Isles. The second part of the work, for which the author assumes entire responsibility, sets forth a classification of waste-land communities, with the view of facilitating choice of tree species in afforestation work.
