Harry Merlo, the founding father of the World Forest Institute, and current Chair of the World Forestry Center, has written an autobiography appropriately titled, “Vintage Merlo.” Hard work is a key tenet of Harry's many successes, but he has always attributed his good fortune to the life lessons he learned from his mother. "Vintage Merlo" is a loving tribute to Clotilde Merlo, as the book traces Harry's realization of the American Dream.A book launching party was held at the World Forestry Center in January, attended by nearly 200 guests, who were treated to wine, appetizers, dessert, and even a harmonica waltz by the man of honor himself.
“Vintage Merlo” can be purchased through the World Forestry Center’s bookstore for $19.95. All proceeds of sales go towards the World Forest Institute. To order by phone, please contact Maria Jeffrey at 503-488-2111.
