If you want stumps gone as well, then definitely an excavator, OR a tractor with a loader attachment designed for similar work. There are tree removal devices for both loader mount and 3-pt. mount that will just pull the trees up roots and all.
If you don't mind the stumps staying behind, then could look for a tractor with brush mower to come in and clean it up. That would be the quickest way, but you'd still have the stumps to contend with.
Go to your favorite search engine and do an image search for "tree removal attachments". That will show you a variety of choices out there.
There has also been a rise in popularity in this last idea, which is the route I would go -- a brush mulcher. Here's a recent thread that Rusty6 posted recently:
These types of machines could go through your area and make short work of things. They can take their cutterheads and mulch down a few inches into the ground.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
