This book presents a detailed legislative history of 1919 Connecticut Public Act 181, designed to standardize the tree care industry and protect consumers of tree protection services. The act defined acceptable tree care practices and prohibited unqualified persons from providing such services. It created a tree protection examining board to test and license qualified arborists and to revoke licenses from those who violated industry standards or engaged in unethical business practices. The author presents the first report summarizing the initial two years of the examining board's work. He gives the background of the act, including the 19th-century tree quackery problem which prompted the legislation. He explains the text of the law and the rules and regulations created by the board for licensing qualified tree care professionals. Through the inclusion of relevant details like the number and names of applicants and licensees, as well as the text of the relevant law, report, and supporting documents, the author presents a comprehensive account of the early implementation of the act that will be of great interest to arborists, historians, and anyone with an interest in tree preservation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
