Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Intrduction to the Study of Modern Forest Economy Ancient forests, chases, parks, warrens, and woods, are described; details are given of destructive treatment to which they have been subjected, and of legislation and literature relating to them previous to the present century. Extract from Preface. - ´Contrast with [the paucity of works in English on Forest Science], the richness of Continental languages in literature on such subjects. I have had sent to me lately Ofversight of Svenska Skogsliteraturen, Bibliografiska Studieren of Axel Cnattingius, a list of many books and papers on Forest Science published in Sweden; I have also had sent to me a work by Don José Jordana y Morera, Ingenero de Montes, under the title of Apuntes Bibliographico Forestale, a catalogue raisonné of 1126 printed books, MSS., &c., in Spanish, on subjects connected with Forest Science. ´I am at present preparing for the press a report on measures adopted in France, Germany, Hungary, and elsewhere, to arrest and utilize drift-sand by planting them with grasses and trees; and in Der Europaeische Flug-sand und Seine Cultur, von Josef Wessely General Domaenen-Inspecktor, und Forst-Academie-Direktor, published in Vienna in 1873, I find a list of upwards of 100 books and papers on that one department of the subject, of which 30, in Hungarian, Latin, and German, were published in Hungary alone. ´According to the statement of one gentleman, to whom application was made by a representative of the Government at the Cape, for information in regard to what suitable works on Forest Economy could he procured from Germany, the works on Forst-Wissenchaft, Forest Science, and Forst-Wirthchaft, Forest Economy, in the German language may be reckoned by cartloads. From what I know of the abundance of works in German, on subjects connected with Forestry, I am not surprised that such a report should have been given. And with the works in German may be reckoned the works in French. ´In Hermann Schmidt´s Fach Katalogue, published in Prague last year (1876), there were given titles, &c., of German works in Forst und Jagd-Literatur, published from 1870 to 1875 inclusive, to the 31st of October of the latter year, amounting in all to 650, exclusive of others given in an appendix, containing a selection of the works published prior to 1870. They are classified thus: - General Forest Economy, 93; Forest Boatany, 60; Forest History and Statistics, 50; Forest Legislation and Game Laws, 56; Forest Mathematics, 25; Forest Tables and Measurements, &c., 148; Forest Technology, 6; Forest Zoology, 19; Peat and Bog Treatment, 14; Forest Calendars, 6; Forest and Game Periodicals, 27; Forest Union and Year Books, 13; Game, 19; Forest and game in Bohemian, 44. In all, 652. Upwards of a hundred new works had been published annually. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
