“The author observes that the period 1760–1860, which is roughly covered by his book, was the golden age of forest wanderings, and not unreasonably deplores the wasteful destruction of one of the finest features of nature. In this volume we are introduced to sportsmen and explorers in all parts of the world, from Stedman on his march through the forests of Guiana to De Saulcy botanizing in the forest region of the Jordan.”—Ath.
