Excerpt from Plant Succession: An Analysis of the Development of Vegetation

Development and Structure of Vegetation (1904) and Research Methods in Ecology in which an endeavor to organize the Whole field of present-day succession was made for the first time. The studies of the past decade have confirmed and broadened the original concepts, and have led irresistibly to the conclusion that they are of universal application. The summer of 1913 and the spring and sum mer of 1914 were spent in testing both principles and processes through out the vegetation of the western half of the continent. The area scrutinized extends from the Great Plains to the Pacific Coast and from the Canadian Rockies to the Mexican boundary. The great climax formations of this region were traversed repeatedly, and their development and relations subjected to critical analysis and comparison.
