About this book

Language: French

This extensively illustrated book is based on the 1925 history course of Gustave Huffel (professor at the prestigious École des Eaux et Forêts in Nancy).

Commented on and completed to this day, it relates 2000 years of the history of the forests of France: evolution of species, areas, populations, modes of ownership, forest law, silvicultural techniques and uses of forests and wood. As the backdrop to the history of France, the forest has experienced very diverse policies, alternating in particular between the long and the short term.

Jean-Marie Ballu and Georges-André Morin provide a real analysis of Huffel’s course, previously unpublished, which they punctuate with comments to better understand the economic and political issues. They complete this course with an examination of the period from 1827 – when the Forest Code was promulgated – to 2012.

Summary in French:
Ce livre très largement illustré est basé sur le cours d’histoire de 1925 de Gustave Huffel (professeur à la prestigieuse École des Eaux et Forêts de Nancy).

Commenté et complété jusqu’à nos jours, il relate 2000 ans de l’histoire des forêts de France : évolution des essences, surfaces, peuplements, modes de propriété, droit forestier, techniques sylvicoles et usages des forêts et du bois. Toile de fond de l’Histoire de France, la forêt connut des politiques très diverses, alternant notamment entre le long et le court terme.

Jean-Marie Ballu et Georges-André Morin livrent une véritable analyse du cours d’Huffel, jusqu’alors inédit, qu’ils ponctuent de commentaires pour mieux comprendre les enjeux économiques et politiques. Ils complètent ce cours par un examen de la période de 1827 – promulgation du Code forestier – à 2012.
