AN ARCHIVAL GUIDE & BIBLIOGRAPHY

THE FOREST HISTORY SOCIETY (FHS) maintains an extensive database of annotated citations of published sources related to environmental history. The Biblioscope section of this journal includes just a selection of the new information that the FHS library adds to that database each quarter. The library indexes all entries in the database by topic, time period, and geographical area. Library staff will gladly provide additional information about specific items you see in this section or information on other topics from the database. The library is happy to respond to requests for full bibliographies or lists of archival collections that may be useful for specific research projects. The unabridged version of this Biblioscope, the Environmental History Bibliography, is searchable online at http://www. foresthistory.org/Research/biblio.

The compiler also welcomes information about relevant publications that the staff may have missed, including books, theses, and dissertations. The compiler particularly welcomes photocopies of relevant articles.

The use of brackets in the following citations indicates that although the publication did not include the information, the compiler has added it.
