[Jim Corson · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was written in 1969 by a biologist. It reflects the thinking of the times about fires and fire suppression in the woods as well as about soil and plant types. From a history stand point, you can see the movement to using controlled fires rather than suppression. If you are doing ecological restoration work it is an interesting book to read with some good basic information in it.

Interesting for historical reasons and still contains a lot of good information. Accessibly written.
