Looking for FC 39

[redflex]

Not sure if this is right place to put this?

But I will try anyway,

I am looking for a copy:

Forest Mensuration Handbook - Forestry Commission Booklet 39.

I know it is out of print if anyone has a copy or knows where to find it

That would be wonderful.

Thanks

Dont know if this is of any help, but if you cant track that book down, the Forestry Commission`s Forest Research may have articles of interest

According to the FC website, FC (http://www.forestry.gov.uk/website/publications.nsf/searchpub/?SearchView&Query=(Mensuration)&SearchOrder=4&SearchMax=0&SearchWV=TRUE&SearchThesaurus=TRUE)

they are being re-printed, but you may already know this.

Hi redflex,

There is some info on the update to this here:

Annual Summary of Research
1 April 2003–31 March 2004 - Revision of FC Booklet 39 (http://www.forestry.gov.uk/forestry/infd-5xnhxy)

The FC have been doing work on digitising it.

If you are not in a hurry you can order it via Amazon (4-6 weeks) or WH Smiths (2-4 weeks)

http://www.whsmith.co.uk/whs/go.asp?isbn=0117100234&db=220&shop=23299


Forest Mensuration Handbook 4th impression 1996
Hamilton, G. J.
£13.00
2-4 Weeks
Hardback 275 pages *|* ISBN: 0117100234

But this probbly just means they may or may not get it and will get itfrom HMSO and FC anyhow. I saw one 2nd hand on Amazon.co.uk but it was a pricy £36 :(

As Nomad suggested Forest Research (http://www.forestresearch.gov.uk) has it on their web site for £13 (shame it is not available as PDF yet like so many of their publications)

Forest Mensuration - Stock code:FCBK039 (http://www.forestresearch.gov.uk/website/publications.nsf/searchpub/?SearchView&Query=(Mensuration)&SearchOrder=4&SearchMax=0&SearchWV=TRUE&SearchThesaurus=TRUE)
They note it as out of stock but:

**Please note that this title is temporarily out of stock and is currently being reprinted. Copies should be available by the end of March 2005.
Worth contacting them to see if it is in now.

Good luck!
