Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Forestry in the United Kingdom Experience in India convinced me that, if systematic, economic forestry were to become an enduring thing in India and in the colonies, it would be necessary to make it so in the mother country. When forestry in Britain has once become an essential part of the industry based upon the soil, those who go out to govern the British possessions beyond the seas will be duly impressed by its importance. They will bring to their spheres of action a sympathetic understanding of the business, which will go a long way to prevent any oscillating policy, that otherwise might threaten to interfere with the progress of forest management. Continuity of action will then become the order of the day, without which no industry can nourish, whatever its name or nature may be; and least of all forestry, the produce of which frequently requires a century and more to mature. Thus it was in the interests of India that I first took up the subject of British forestry, and it has occupied me ever since I returned from India in 1885. I travelled over the greater part of England, Scotland and Ireland, and soon became aware of the great importance to this country of extended afforestation and improved management of the existing woods. Already in January, 1886, I submitted to the Earl of Carnarvon, then Viceroy of Ireland, at his Lordship´s invitation, a pamphlet entitled "Afforestation in Great Britain and Ireland." Before that pamphlet had left the press, a change of Government took place, and my pamphlet was, I presume, shelved. However, I went on, and at various periods I published not only a Manual of Forestry, but various articles and other papers.
