Download or read book Wildlife Portfolio of the Western National Parks Classic Reprint written by Joseph S. Dixon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wildlife Portfolio of the Western National Parks Wildlife - its study, conservation, and management - has become im portant in public consciousness of the outdoors. Making pictures of wildlife is a popular hobby. Many visitors to our national parks go to these places with photography as an objective. Here all animal life is protected, and the rifle, shotgun, and trap are unknown. Picture makers, 'on the contrary, whether young or old, expert or novice, armed with the simplest or most elaborate equipment, are welcomed to hunt. As a standard for camera enthusiasts and for the enjoyment of others who simply like to look, the National Park Service is pleased to present this portfolio of pictures. Most of them have been made by that pioneer in the field of wildlife study, Joseph S. Dixon, who has also contributed the text of interesting life-history facts and anecdotes of his experiences with wild animals. We believe that park visitors will profit from this work of Mr. Dixon and the others who have kindly allowed use of their prize photographs. This book, as well as the financial assistance that made many of the photographs possible, is due to the inspiration and generosity of the late George M. Wright, founder and first Chief of the Wildlife Division of the National Park Service (now the Section on National Park Wildlife. Fish and Wildlife Service).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the National Parks N ow I fail to share with my advisers their poor Opinion of the taste, enterprise, and intelligence of the wide-awake American, but, for the sake of my message, I yield in some part to their warnings. Therefore I have so presented my material that the miscalled, and, I verily believe, badly slandered average reader, may have his popular book by omitting the note on the Appreciation of Scenery, and the several notes explanatory of scenery which are interpolated between groups of chapters. If it is true, as I have been told, that the average reader would omit these anyway, because it is his habit to omit prefaces and notes of every kind, then nothing has been lost.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the National Parks of America You cannot judge a country by its cities alone - least of all the United States. New York is typical of nothing except big cities; San Francisco is fast losing its individu ality New Orleans' atmosphere to-day is more vitiated by progress than it was yester day. And so the national parks remain as the greatest and most individual recreation grounds that any American may visit, whether he cross the water or not. They combine the lure of the outdoors, the appeal of tremendous scenic magnificence, the attractions of geolog ical and archeological study and the observa tion of wild animal life, and the stimulus of being brought face to face with Nature at her best and freest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oh, Ranger!: A Book About the National Parks I like the idea of this book, Oh, Ranger! It tells the story of the parks in the simple, informal style of the rangers. It gives the rangers the credit due them for their fine work in guarding the national parks and preserving them in their primeval beauty. It breathes the spirit of the people who belong to the parks, who make possible the parks as they are today. They are a fine, earnest, intelligent, and public-spirited body of men, these rangers. Though small in number, their in uence is large. Many and long are the duties heaped upon their shoulders. If a trail is to be blazed, it is send a ranger. If an animal is oundering in the snow, a ranger is sent to pull him out; if a bear is in the hotel, if a fire threatens a forest, if someone is to be saved, it is send a ranger. If a Dude wants to know the why, if a Sagebrusher is puzzled about a road, it is ask the ranger. Everything the ranger knows, he will tell you, except about himself. Oh, Ranger! Now tells you about him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The National Parks and Emergency Conservation The landscape process begins with selecting locations which do not tear up the landscape or obtrude into important views. This is. Followed by a study of the design, which endeavors to use native materials and other architectural features that will harmonize the structure with its sur roundings. The last phase of the problem is the placing of any plant materials necessary to cure unavoidable damage that may result from the construction. The range of national park landscape problems is highly interesting and diversified. It runs the gamut from dog kennels in Alaska to colonial plantations in Virginia, from adobe houses with cactus gardens in the Southwest to subarctic roadside plantings in Maine, and from lakeside hotels in Montana to hot-springs developments in Arkansas. The actual construction work, of course, devolves upon the engineers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
