The 2,800 titles in the “e-ditions” program can be purchased individually as PDF eBooks or as hardcover reprint (“print-on-demand”) editions via the “Available from De Gruyter” link above. They are also available to institutions in ten separate subject-area packages that reflect the entire spectrum of the Press’s catalog. More about the E-ditions Program »

The fourth edition of that pocket-sized hardy perennial Woodsman’s Manua, by Austin Gary, whose first copyright was taken out in 1909. The present edition of this work, like those that have preceded it, is designed primarily for use in the woods and in offices concerned with the management of timber land. Managing owners have found it useful, as well as woodsmen of all types of training. It has also played a part in the training of students at forest schools.
