Woods produced by the older management systems of various kinds can still be seen and some are listed here, and facts and forces that lead to the clearance of woods are considered, with useful ideas on how these may be changed; and more immediately, on how to save any wood in ones's own area that may be under threat. Profusely illustrated with photographs and drawings by Rosemary Wise. NOT EX LIB 4. Fine/Fine.
