Canada's Forests provides an overall description of Canada's
forests, their historical uses, and their current condition. The
ten forest regions of Canada are examined, looking at how the human
use of these forests has changed from the end of the last glacial
period (10,000 years ago) to the present. detailing the rise of the
late 19th-century conservation movement and its subsequent decline
after World War I, the interplay between industry and government in
the development of policy, the adoption of sustained yield policies
after World War II, and the recent adoption of sustainable forest
management in response to environmental concerns. Drushka argues
that, despite the centuries of use, the Canadian forest retains a
good deal of its vitality and integrity. Written in accessible
language and aimed at a general readership, Canada's Forests is for
anyone interested in the debate about the current and future uses
of this precious natural resource.
