The Lumberman's Handbook, written by William B. Judson and originally published in 1881, is a comprehensive guide to the lumber industry of the late 19th century. The book covers a wide range of topics related to the production and distribution of lumber, including the various types of trees used for lumber, the tools and techniques used to fell and transport trees, and the different methods of sawing and seasoning lumber. In addition to practical advice for lumbermen, the book also includes information on the economic and social aspects of the industry, such as the role of lumber in the development of the American West and the impact of industrialization on the lumber business. The Lumberman's Handbook is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the American lumber industry. Its detailed descriptions of tools, techniques, and processes provide a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, while its insights into the economic and social factors shaping the industry offer a broader perspective on the history of American business.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
