ARCHER H. MAYOR is best known as the creator of the acclaimed multivolume Joe Gunther mystery series.
Southern Timberman should interest a variety of readers, including
conservationists, students of business history, and historians of
the post-Reconstruction South. It is a rewarding and enlightening
book.
*Environmental History Review*
The physical aspects of the book, including the photographs, are
excellent. The language is fresh, vivid, and convincing. It is a
good book and true to our understanding of the cutting and
rebuilding of the southern forest.
*Journal of Southern History*
Mayor does an excellent job of describing and analyzing the
companies of William Buchanan and his successors and of relating
their situation to the larger story of the southern forest products
industry.
*Business History Review*
