A more easily accessible source than the Oxford Commonwealth
Forestry Institute paper is the Journal of Forest Economics,
Volume 1, Number 1 (1995), which includes, in addition to a
translation of Faustmann (1849), translations of Heckscher and
Ohlin of the economics of forestry, and a reprint of Samuelson's
1976 article on the subject. That volume also includes Lofgren's
"Knut Wicksell on the optimal rotation problem in forestry." The
first volume of the Journal of Forest Economics is a convenient
starting-point for the history of the economics of forestry.

Faustmann published another article (signed as F.), also on
forest valuation, four months before his famous article in the
same journal. See:

Viitala, Esa-Jussi (2006), "An early contribution of Martin
Faustmann to natural resource economics," Journal of Forest
Economics, Volume 12, pp. 131-144.
