First lines
It will not take long to realize or remember that of all America's riches, the inherited and acquired, the natural and manmade, trees are among our most cherished.
It would be a poorer nation indeed without them, if a nation at all. As living creatures they delight the eye and inspire belief as you walk among them. As wood, logged and hewn, they serve civilization in myriad ways.
