Forests in Time: The Environmental Consequences of 1,000 Years of Change in New England

by David R. Foster

This seminal book, based on innovative research at Harvard Forest, describes the dramatic natural and human-induced changes in the land and environment of New England over the past 1,000 years.“An important and timely addition to a growing literature that documents change and, by implication, underlines our responsibilities to that thing out there that we call ‘nature.’”—Michael Williams, Science“A must-read for anyone interested in the study of historical forest ecology and anthropogenic impacts on ecosystem dynamics.”—Marc D. Abrams, BioScience

Dry. Oh, so very dry....although, there are some very interesting little nuggets. Not recommended for fun, easy, or entertaining reading.
