This is a very old book with lots of interesting information about tree crops around the world in the early 20th century.

There are some very not okay slurs in the book, as there are a lot of quotes from various tree farmers, and the book was published in 1929. So like a great resource and get your feet set for some language you expect your kinda racist great grandparents to sling.

This is a serious geography book purposely frames the world in the context of human industry and "world-climactic-regions". In just reading Elliott's supplement in the text; it is impressive how attuned these early educators were to the challenges of over-harvesting resources and what we now call sustainability.
