The Oh ject of this study was to determine the forest resources and possi bilities 0f the State, the legislation needed to secure protection and preservation of the forests, and the lines along which more detailed forest investigations can most profitably be carried out. In No vember and December, 1910, typical sections Of each forest region were examined by a representative Of the Forest Service, and in terviews were Obtained with public Officials, lumbermen, and others familiar with local conditions. Considerable information was also Obtained from reports on private tracts previously examined by the Forest Service.

Forgotten Grasslands of the South is the study of one of the biologically richest and most endangered ecosystems in North America. In a seamless blend of science and personal observation, renowned ecologist Reed Noss explains the natural history of southern grasslands, their origin and history, and the physical determinants of grassland distribution, including ecology, soils, landform, and hydrology. In addition to offering fascinating new information about these little-studied ecosystems, Noss demonstrates how natural history is central to the practice of conservation. Although theory and experimentation have recently dominated the field of ecology, ecologists are coming to realize how these distinct approaches are not divergent but complementary, and that pursuing them together can bring greater knowledge and understanding of how the natural world works and how we can best conserve it. This long-awaited work sets a new standard for scientific literature and is essential reading for those who study and work to conserve the grasslands of the South as well as for everyone who is fascinated by the natural world.
