Information and History about Firewood:

The burning of wood fuel is the largest current use of biomass derived energy. Firewood can be used as a solid fuel for cooking or heating, or occasionally for steam engines. The use of firewood as a fuel source for home heat is as old as civilization itself. Historically, it was limited in use only by the distribution of technology required to make a spark. Wood heat is still common throughout much of the world, although it has been mainly replaced with coal, oil or natural gas heating.

Firewood is usually sold by the cord, 128 ft� (3.62 m�), corresponding to a woodpile 8 ft wide � 4 ft high of 4 ft-long logs. The cord is legally defined by statute in most states. It is also common to see firewood sold by the "face cord", which is usually not legally defined, and varies from one area to another. For example, in one state a pile of wood 8 feet wide � 4 feet high of 16"-long logs will often be sold as a "face cord", though its volume is only one-third of a cord. In another state, or even another area of the same state, the volume of a face cord may be considerably different. Hence, it is risky to buy wood sold in this manner, as the transaction is not based on a legally enforceable unit of measure.
