Excerpt from Schlich's Manual of Forestry, Vol. 1: Forest Policy in the British Empire The third edition of Volume I. Of my Manual of Forestry contained an exposition of the General Foundations of Forest Policy, and a short account of the state of forest conservancy in the greater part of the British Empire. That account was, I believe, the first attempt of the kind, but it was incomplete owing to the difficulty of obtaining reliable information on many points. In July, 1920, the Imperial Forest Conference received thirty-four Statements from the different parts of the Empire containing a flood of new information, of which I have made full use in this fourth edition. The original statements cover 517 foolscap pages of close print, of which my friend, Mr. R. L. Robinson, the Technical Forestry Commissioner, has prepared an excellent summary and attached it to the Proceedings of the Empire Forest Conference. In this volume I have taken a middle course by recording all essential facts given in the Statements and omitting matter of less importance to the general reader. I have added, as regards each country, my personal views on the steps to be taken in the immediate future. I hope that I have succeeded in giving a readable account of the condition of forest conservancy in the Empire as it stood in July, 1920. At any rate, the contents of the book may serve as a basis by which future progress may be judged. I had intended to illustrate the book fully, but I had to abandon that project owing to the high cost of production at the present time. Nor have I added the conventional Index, which, in a book of this kind, would have been of doubtful utility. On the other hand, I have given a detailed Table of Contents, which should enable the reader to find without difficulty the desired subject.
