By OVERTON W. PRICE Vice-President National Conservation Association With a Foreword by Gifford Pinchot, President National Conservation Association Illustrated by reproductions of 136 photographs Octavo. $1.50 net; by mail, $1.80 Here is a book that will hold the interest and attention of every really manly boy--and womanly girl, too--who is anxious to know more about the natural wealth of "the land we live in" and who as a future voter and taxpayer has a right to know what is being done today and should be done tomorrow to take care of what is left. Says Mr. Pinchot in his foreword, "No people are prouder of their country than we Americans, but very few of us have any real knowledge about the three million square miles which we call the United States, yet there are very few stories so interesting and so well worth hearing as the story of what there is in the land we live in.... I have never seen so good a statement of the great conservation problem as this. It tells but half the story to say that this is an admirable book for boys and girls. If I may judge from my own experience, it is about as good for grown-ups also.... This country of ours belongs far more truly to the boys and girls than it does to us older people. They will live in it and enjoy it longer than we shall, and everything that happens in it, every bit of waste and every saving of waste, will affect their lives more than it does ours. We are only the trustees, taking care of the country for them until they are ready to take care of it themselves.... It is peculiarly appropriate that Mr. Price should have written this book. His experience has been exactly what he needed to fit him for the task. Mr. Price is a forester, and was for many years my right hand in the Forest Service. Indeed, if credit could be allotted justly for work done, I believe it would be found that he had more to do with the success of the Service than I had. In addition to his intimate knowledge of the whole country acquired in the Forest Service, Mr. Price has been associated with the Conservation movement from its very beginning. It was with him that I discussed it first, after the idea had occurred to me, and from that time to this little has happened in Conservation which has not profited by his wide knowledge, remarkable powers of organization and unusual executive ability.... His scientific accuracy is the guarantee for the accuracy of this book.... I hope this admirable book may have what it SMALL, MAYNARD & COMPANY Publishers, Boston A book of nation-wide interest and importance. THE LAND WE LIVE IN--(Continued) deserves,--the widest circulation among the young people of America. All the boys and girls who read it while they are young will be more useful to the Nation because of it when they grow up; and unless I am mistaken, they will thoroughly enjoy reading it besides."
