America's first great forester tells young people how to enter his profession: what forestry actually is, what schooling and field skills it demands, and what kind of life it offers among the trees. Gifford Pinchot writes with the conviction of a man who built a national forest service. A clear, inspiring guide to a career in the woods. Choose the forest.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
