the machines and techniques used for logging in America. The book begins with the days when logs were harvested with the sweat of men and animals using axes, bucksaws, drag sleds, and arches. Water transport is also covered, from flumes and chutes to giant stream drives where millions of logs traveled out of the wilderness on the waterways of the country.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.13em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eThe first portable power source for logging was the steam engine.
