Our Scope
The Society is at the heart of historical research, providing resources on topics from conservation and energy to wilderness and philosophy. Our resources help scholars and writers worldwide access and understand the context to forest history and, in turn, enhance understanding of the rich story of conservation.

Who We Serve
Generations of students, scholars, landowners, journalists, forest managers, and many others have relied on FHS for historical records, insight, and inspiration as they explore the relationship of people and forests through time.
