From the Conclusion (p.184) ... 'I hope I have made clear to you the role of the hunting plantation in the development of game and fire ecology and management. I have discussed my first reason -- fire and its early beginnings. I want to point out that the Thomas and Grady Counties, Georgia, and Leon County, Florida area is the birth place of what is now known as fire management and fire ecology in relation to the bobwhite quail and other plants and animals of the ecosystem in which the bobwhite habitat is developed. The Bobwhite is a key bird but it is also an index species for this entire ecosystem.'
