Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Biographical Record of the Graduates and Former Students of the Yale Forest
Early in 1901 an illustrated circular announcing the Yale Summer School of Forestry was published. The course as planned, and later carried out, covered a period of eight weeks beginning July 8, 1901. No entrance examinations were required, but no one under seventeen years of age was admitted. The teaching staff consisted of the director and the assistant professor. The following courses were offered: introduction to forestry, silviculture, forest botany, forest measurements and forest protection. Twenty-seven students were enrolled, seven of whom were women. The latter had all the privileges of the School with the exception of living and boarding in camp. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
