Gifford Pinchot became the first American trained in forestry during a time when loggers were recklessly cutting down trees to meet the country’s rising demand for wood. He showed lumbermen that they could make money and keep the land healthy for the future. By 1905 he had established the U.S. Forest Service and was soon working with President Roosevelt on a secret plan that would preserve millions of acres of the West forever. Full-color art. Afterword.
