Book excerpt: Five hundred years ago, when Ponce de Leon landed on the shores of Florida, 27 million acres of virgin timber--chiefly longleaf, slash pine and large areas of cypress, loblolly pine, sand pine, palms, and oaks--covered the land that constitutes the state today. Of the 15 million acres now forested, 12 million are privately held. This lively, 500-year history of Florida's forests begins before the Spaniards colonized the state, when Native American tribes felled trees to build shelters and canoes, carve ritual masks and weapons, and make firewood. These tribes revered Florida's forests; they understood the dangers of wildfires set by lightning and were careful when burning underbrush to improve forage or aid in the hunt. Their closeness to nature and dependence on forests for their way of life made Native Americans Florida's first "forest managers." Florida historian Baynard Kendrick offers first-person accounts by the people who explored, logged, reforested, and managed Florida's forests. His chapters feature correspondence from conquistadors as well as memoirs by early settlers, loggers, and mill operators whose work triggered a forest conservation movement in the 1920s. Commissioned by the Florida Board of Forestry in 1966 on the eve of the environmental era, Kendrick's manuscript--titled "Florida's Perpetual Forests"--went unpublished for four decades. Barry Walsh has picked up where Kendrick left off, making this the first book to fully document Florida's forest history through the modern day. Enlightening and accessible to a broad audience, this book will appeal to historians, conservationists, foresters, agricultural leaders, archaeologists, anthropologists, legislators, and many more.

Book excerpt: Florida's forests, covering 16.2 million acres or 47% of the total land base, are a renewable and dynamic resource undergoing significant pressures from a dramatically increasing Florida population. The forestland base is diverse, composed of lowland and upland hardwood stands, oak-pine stands, natural pine stands, and pine plantations. Statistics show that forest industry owns 27% of Florida's forests, non-industrial private owners control 53%, while 19% (of which 11% is federal) is publicly owned. The amount of public ownership has increased dramatically over the last several years (16% since 1987), due to various state conservation initiatives. The amount of land owned by forest industry has decreased by about 16% since 1987. Florida's forests support a vibrant and thriving timber industry. Florida is an important contributor to the southern U.S.
