Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone curious about nature and Indiana will find interest in this collective biography of naturalists who were in some way connected to the Hoosier state. Experts of the natural world, the naturalists herein were individuals whose fascination with nature became their lifelong passion. Ranging from dedicated amateurs to specialized scientists, some renowned and others unfamiliar, their time in Indiana may have been brief as was John Muir, or nearly permanent as Gene Stratton-Porter. Once the scientific center of the American frontier, New Harmony attracted naturalists such as William Maclure, Thomas Say and Charles Alexandre Lesueur. This book profiles 38 noted naturalists who have made enduring contributions to Indiana's natural heritage over the course of the past 200 years. Arranged chronologically, the brief biographical accounts shed light on their lives and achievements. From the pioneering naturalist-explorer of the late 18th century, to the 21st century scientist-ecologist, the role of the naturalist has evolved from a collection-gathering-cataloging adventurer to a steadfast scientific preservationist who proposes a new alliance with nature.

Download or read book More Amazing Tales from Indiana written by Fred D. Cavinder and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2003-11-19 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories in this book will provide entertainment for everyone and evoke wonder in the most jaded observer of the human condition. Some of the exploits that Fred D. Cavinder describes are half-hidden footnotes to national and international happenings. Others seem so typical of Indiana that they will appeal to anyone who understands the Hoosier spirit. But all of them are true—recorded in reliable accounts or by reliable witnesses from early times to the present. In "Saving Face," Cavinder introduces us to General Ambrose Burnside of Liberty. Burnside blundered his way through the Civil War, relocated to Rhode Island, and served three terms as governor and two terms as U.S. Senator. But what we really remember Burnside for is his unique facial hair—his "sideburns." Did you know that Indiana produced three of the movie Tarzans? In "AHHaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiieeeeeeeee!" you can find out who they were. With its sometimes quirky stories about the Hoosier state, More Amazing Tales from Indiana will be a ready companion for the bedside table and will provide a wellspring of anecdotes for speechmakers and pundits.
