A History of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station in New Haven, Connecticut.

This text comprises a rare piece of work by L. H. Bailey, originally published in 1903. A thought-provoking treatise on the numerous considerations to be taken into account during the teaching and studying of natural sciences, this is a classic educational work and its core philosophies are still relevant to the modern era. Liberty Hyde Bailey was a master of horticulture and botany, and founded the American Society for Horticultural Science. This rare book is proudly republished here complete with original illustrations and a new introductory biography of the author.

This book is a textbook for Urban/Community Forestry courses and a handbook for Shade Tree Commissions, tree wardens, State and National Forestry Services, and professional societies. It is the most complete text in this field because it addresses both culture and management, and the chapters have been written by experts who are active practitioners. The book provides observations and examples relevant to every urban center in the U.S. and elsewhere.
