The re-established forests of the Upper Delaware are a living reminder of centuries of both exploitation and good intentions. The forests began to disappear as European settlers clear-cut farmland and fed sawmills and tanneries. A century and a half later, a forest for the 21st century has emerged - an ecological patchwork protected by a web of governmental agencies. This book tells theit story.
