This book offers a detailed, first-hand account of the efforts made by the U.S. Forest Service in the South to sell timber or tractors, improve forest infrastructure, and promote the use of all resulting forest products. In doing so, the book highlights the complexity of managing Southern Pine forests and the dominance of physical improvements in forest management, calling for a greater emphasis on business aspects. With this shift, the book positions the development of sound management plans within its broader historical context and thematic depth.
