| Summary |
"Practical Forestry in the Pacific Northwest" by E. T. Allen is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the principles of forest conservation and management specifically tailored to the Pacific Northwest region, emphasizing the importance of forests as community resources. It addresses both the public's interests in forest preservation and the practical needs of lumbermen looking to sustain their industries. The opening of the book sets the stage for a discussion on the urgent need for effective forest management practices and outlines the potential economic benefits of preserving forested areas. It highlights the growing awareness among citizens and lumbermen that the destructive practices of deforestation and forest fires lead to significant economic losses and long-term detrimental effects. By presenting fundamental concepts in forest conservation, Allen aims to guide timber owners and the general public toward sustainable practices that benefit both the environment and the economy.
