Excerpt from The Practice of Forestry: Concerning Also the Financial Aspect of Afforestation
IN the following pages I have endeavoured to write such a treatise on Forestry as will be found of universal use to Landowners, Land Agents, and all Students of the science of Forestry.
It is very necessary to realise that a complete knowledge of the correct practice of Forestry can only be obtained by approaching the subject from a scientific attitude.
There are many able foresters whose only school has been that of the lonely woodlands, but their ability is, nevertheless, the result of an unconscious scientific study.
There is, however, a species of humanity - a class of self styled experts - who advertise as being practical authorities on Forestry matters, and who boast that they eschew all that is scientific, but whose only passport is,'in reality, that of garrulous ignorance, and an overweening confidence in their own inability. I cannot too strongly warn my readers against attaching any importance to the remarks or advice of such men as these.
