Abstract
THIS book is a dictionary of terms used by foresters, timber merchants, agents, shippers, sawyers and others engaged in the cultivation and felling of trees, and in the sale and manipulation of timber. Although many of the terms are given in other dictionaries, their collection and arrangement in a book of convenient size for carrying about is a very distinct gain for the business people for whom it is primarily intended. It was originally published in 1921, and this, the second, edition has undergone some considerable revision.

By Edwin Haynes. Second edition, revised and enlarged by Thomas J. Stobart. Pp. vii + 184. (London: Ernest Benn, Ltd., 1933.) 8s. 6d. net.
