Abstract
THE object of this book, as stated by the author in the preface, is to direct attention to the advanage o'f controlling the blown sand dunes on the sea-coast so as to make them act as a protection to the land behind from erosion by the sea; to prevent them from advancing inland and destroying existing vegetation, and to enable sand wastes where they exist to be reclaimed and planted with trees.
