Excerpt from The Log of a Timber Cruiser
Public knowledge of the reasons for the existence of the United States Forest Service is fairly widespread and accurate. Conservation - the intelligent use and development of the resources of our National Forests, has worked its way into the list of the Nations permanent policies. But while most people are agreed as to the desirability of the work the Forest Service is doing and know in a general way what that work is, there exists a surprising lack of information as to the actual life and day-to-day duties of Service field men: Supervisors and Forest Assistants, Rangers and Guards.
"The Log of a Timber Cruiser" is in part an attempt to furnish such information - at least in one phase of Forest Service activity - by detailing the incidents of a six months' field assignment in the mountains of southern New Mexico. If, in addition, the reading of this account provides half the entertainment which the recording of the events as they occurred brought, I shall feel very much more than pleased.
