This history of the men and women who manage the vast Northern Forest with an eye on conservation, sustainability and the logging industry takes the reader on a journey that visits the development of timber cruising, logging, forestry, and our relationship to our physical environment. It shows that conservation is concerned with our spiritual, mental, and material welfare. It tells us it is not enough to use forest resources wisely, with the idea that forestry is an end in itself; the end is greater than human happiness, and forestry is merely a means to that end.
