University of Idaho Library, Special Collections and ArchivesThis collection consists of a variety of papers kept by Fred Weber during his time researching ways to improve forestry and vegetation in Africa from 1974-1990. Contained are paper drafts, project proposals, service reports, handwritten notes, and even several French lesson packets for the African territories where French is the official language. Some of the research papers are written by Weber, but others are included because they requested Weber's commentary. Weber's research in forestry varied in specific topic from soil restoration to rural land reclamation to deforestation. He worked heavily with the Peace Corps and Forest Service. Work would also expand outside of forestry into Range and Livestock projects funded by USAID.
