Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of West American Cone-Bearers The presence of such a large number as sixty species of cone-bearing trees in Northwest America, is due, principally, to the fact that they are really natives of more northern or more elevated regions, from which they were expelled ages ago, by the extreme cold of the last Ice-Age; which, in turn, retreated before a Thermal Age, during the prevalence of which the plants returned from the southern hemisphere and spread over the temperate plains, or became stranded upon the cool mountains - finding homes only where their constitutions and their environment permit the maintenance of life and perpetuation of their species.
