This publication is an attempt to introduce forestry as a science by establishing it on a scientific basis, thereby making its validity and necessity universal, and by demonstrating that it primarily requires theoretical knowledge and logical thinking to solve the diverse and multifaceted problems at hand.

The Publisher of Sciences publishes historical literature by both well-known and lesser-known scientific authors. This makes works that have long been out of print accessible again to the interested reader.

This textbook and manual on forestry based on natural laws is an unaltered, high-quality reprint of the original edition from 1909, illustrated with numerous historical images.
