Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Arbor Day: Its History, Observance, Spirit and Significance; With Practical Selections on Tree-Planting and Conservation, and a Nature Anthology
The recent awakening of a national interest in the movement toward the conservation of our natural resources has emphasized the need for a collection of literature on all phases of Arbor Day more modern than the excellent Manual published by New York in 1889 and more comprehensive than the many small Arbor Day annuals brought out by the various states.
The editor has aimed to include in the present volume the most practical as well as the most beautiful essays, articles, letters, stories, exercises, and poems that have been written about Arbor Day, its history, observance, spirit, and significance, as well as those on Spring, trees, ?owers, and green things growing.
