The
historical development of forestry and the interdependence
of ecological and social change has not been accorded
due recognition in agrarian history. Forest history
even to this day has not been given its due place
in the purview of history; so much so that even enviromentalists,
while discussing the onslaughts of environmental degradation,
do not take into consideration the forces of history
which have shaped the management of forests today.
Thus the treatise, "Forestry in British India"
by B. Ribbentrip written in 1900, is an important
source of forest history.
