1 janv. 1586 - William Camden’s "Britannia", published
Description:
In his book about Britain he described the Forest of Dean as already losing many of its trees due to the demands of industry. It had been, before then, ‘so thick with trees, so very dark and terrible by reason of its shades and cross-ways, that it rendered the inhabitants barbarous, and emboldened them to commit many outrages’.
