Abstract
SIR W. SCHLICH has crowned a long life of devotion to the science and art of forestry by the publication of what is practically a new work, although it purports to be only a new edition of vol. 1 of his well-known Manual. (1) This volume is certainly the most valuable book on the economics and the history of British forestry that has yet appeared. It should prove interesting to the statesman and the economist, as well as to the forester and the industrialist.
