Reviews

"Aus den Rezensionen: ""... Die von Pinus palustris beherrschte Waldflache ... gilt heute als eine Existenz bedrohte Baumart in Nordamerika. Das erklart das neu erwachte Interesse an dieser Art, der mit dem vorliegenden Werk eine umfassende Studie gewidmet ist. Sie umfasst vier Hauptabschnitte: Einfuhrung mit Geschichte und Gegenwart der Okosysteme, Okologie, Waldbau und Wiederherstellung von Pinus palustris gepragter Waldtypen. Das Werk kann als vorbildlich fur eine moderne forstliche Monographie gelten und wird daher sicherlich auch uber Nordamerika hinaus Interesse finden."" (Ernst Rohrig, in: Forstarchiv, 2006, Vol. 77, Issue 6, S. 225)"
