The Art of Managing Longleaf : A Personal History of the Stoddard-Neel Approach (Hardcover) by Leon Neel and Paul S. Sutter and Albert G. Way and Jerry F. Franklin. "The Art of Managing Longleaf" documents the sometimes controversial management system that not only has protected Greenwood's "Big Woods" but also has been practiced on a substantial acreage of the remnant longleaf pine woodlands in the Red Hills and other parts of the Coastal Plain. Often described as an art informed by science, the Stoddard-Neel Approach combines frequent prescribed burning, highly selective logging, a commitment to a particular woodland aesthetic, intimate knowledge of the ecosystem and its processes, and other strategies to manage the longleaf pine ecosystem in a sustainable way. 211 pages.
