More"A Trip Through European Forests" by Dr. J. V. Hofmann is a manuscript written by Dr. Julius V. Hofmann in December 1925 to document a trip to forests in Europe in which he traveled with a party including Dr. C. A. Schenck, twelve students, and a lumberman. From March 28 to June 13, 1925, the party visited forests in Holland, Germany, Switzerland, France, and London. Hofmann documented, among other things, the forestry techniques practiced in each location, forestry expenses, and forest schools. In February 1929, the North Carolina State College of Agriculture and Engineering (later N.C. State University) hired Dr. Julius V. Hofmann to set up a forestry program at the college. Prior to his appointment at North Carolina State College, Hofmann served as assistant director of the forestry school at Mount Alto, Pennsylvania.
