Trees, Forestry and Lumbering A List of Books and of References to Periodicals in the Brooklyn Public Library 3RAGe-ITEM :millan -G280 U.B.C. LIBRARY 0 373 6 11 Published by THE BROOKLYN PUBLIC LIBRARY Brooklyn, New York 1911 THE LIBRARY THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA «s, Forestry and Lumbering A List of Books and of References to Periodicals in the Brooklyn Public Library Published by THE BROOKLYN PUBLIC LIBRARY Brooklyn, New York 1911 PREFACE This list comprises a selection of the books on trees, forestry, and related subjects in the Brooklyn Public Library, and a selection of articles in recent periodical literature which deal with these subjects. Many of the older books of course contain information which was of value in their day, but they have been for the most part superseded by later books, which present the results of the advance of knowledge, and so they have ceased to be of interest or value to the reader of to-day. It is, therefore, of the more modern books that this list is mainly made up, but a few old books, such as Evelyn's Sylva and Michaux's and Nuttall's North American sylva, have been included, because of their monumental character, historical interest, or the like. The arrangement of the first part, that devoted to books, is alphabetical by authors under a number of subjects. Books whose numbers are preceded by R do not circu- late; with the exception of these, any of the books listed may be obtained through any branch. Those books whose numbers are preceded by J are written especially for children. In cases in which the Library has more than one edition of a work, usually only the latest one in the Library is men- tioned. The list of references to periodicals is arranged alpha- betically by titles under two headings.
