The second part covers the new regime, which refers to the period of British rule from the 19th century to the time of publication. The author compares and contrasts the two regimes and provides insights into the changes in forest management practices that occurred during this period.The book also discusses the various species of trees found in the Cape forests, their uses, and the methods used for harvesting them. The author provides a detailed account of the forest industry, including the production of timber, firewood, and other forest products.Overall, Management of Crown Forests at the Cape of Good Hope: Under the Old Regime and Under the New is an informative and insightful book that provides a valuable historical perspective on forest management practices in South Africa.
