About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of The Training of a Forester by Gifford Pinchot. Read in English by KHand Written by a forester, this book looks at the definition of "forest", what the life of a forester entails, discusses the forest service both on the state and national levels, and the training required to be a forester. As a forester himself, and the chief of the US Forest Service, Pinchot was a foremost expert in this topic,and, based on his preface to the work, seems to expect this work to either encourage or dissuade young people from a life in forestry. - Summary by KHand
