Book Description
Celebrate the tradition of literary naturalists and writers who embrace the natural world as the setting for some of our most euphoric and serious experiences. These books map the intimate connections between the human and the natural world. Literary naturalists transcend political boundaries, social concerns, and historical milieus; they speak for what Henry Beston called the "other nations" of the planet. Their message acquires more weight and urgency as wild places become increasingly scarce.

Book Description
Excerpt from Final Natural History Essays The present volume completes a series of sixty Essays dealing with typical examples of the class Mammalia. In this work, as in its predecessors, the subject has throughout been viewed from the combined standpoint of the zoologist and the historian; the photographs are selected from a series of over five hundred negatives taken by the author. The opportunity is here taken of thanking the Press for many long and most encouraging notices of previous studies, and the public for their kind reception of former volumes both at home and abroad.
