Summary: Senior Forestry Student at Southern Illinois University
Review: I found this text an important addition for any natural resource professional, from the forestry student to natural resource managers. The text is well-written, clearly outlining the main silvicultural regions of the United States. Refined diagrams and photographs offer definition where complex situations exist. Barrett goes further than simple silvicultural solutions by introducing important, often ignored, social, economical, and political, obsticles specific to each region. This text represents a helpful reference to those interested in regions beyond their own, as well as offering original, science-based, solutions for areas known by the reader.
