The Forests of Canada

The Forests of Canada is a visual celebration of the continuing relationship that Canadians have with forests. It describes Canada’s forests in broad but comprehensive terms, with chapters devoted to each of the eight general forest types and an additional chapter on urban forests. The outstanding colour photography commissioned for the publication creates a pictoral narrative paralleling the text.

Features:

more than 150 high-quality colour photographs depicting the composition, species associations, timber and non-timber uses, and visual beauty of Canada’s forests
colour satellite maps showing the location of forest types across Canada
information and statistics describing forest composition, forest ecology, characteristic wildlife species, and Canadian forest management practices
overview of Canada’s urban forests

The Forests of Canada will inform and entertain anyone having an interest in the extent, composition, and management of forests.

Written by Ken Farr. Co-published by Fitzhenry & Whiteside Ltd., and Canadian Forest Service, Natural Resources Canada, 2003.
