In an age of consciousness about conservation, this is a worthy
biography of a man with a passionate drive for forests. Charles
Lane Poole (1885-1970), Western Australia's first Conservator of
Forests, is the flawed hero of this biography. Motivated by the
ideals of forest conservation and its science, he followed their
dictates in Western Australia and across the world. Poole was the
first man to attempt the task of managing and preserving
Australia's magnificent jarrah and karri forests at a time when
they were being felled for railway sleepers. This fascinating
biography follows his life from his birth in England in 1885 to
Ireland, France, South Africa, Sierra Leone, Western Australia,
Papua New Guinea, Canberra, where he established Australia's
national forestry school, and Sydney, where he died in 1970.
