Download or read book California s Frontier Naturalists written by Richard G Beidleman and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2006-03-02 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles the fascinating story of the enthusiastic, stalwart, and talented naturalists who were drawn to California’s spectacular natural bounty over the decades from 1786, when the La Pérouse Expedition arrived at Monterey, to the Death Valley expedition in 1890–91, the proclaimed "end" of the American frontier. Richard G. Beidleman’s engaging and marvelously detailed narrative describes these botanists, zoologists, geologists, paleontologists, astronomers, and ethnologists as they camped under stars and faced blizzards, made discoveries and amassed collections, kept journals and lost valuables, sketched flowers and landscapes, recorded comets and native languages. He weaves together the stories of their lives, their demanding fieldwork, their contributions to science, and their exciting adventures against the backdrop of California and world history. California's Frontier Naturalists covers all the major expeditions to California as well as individual and institutional explorations, introducing naturalists who accompanied boundary surveys, joined federal railroad parties, traveled with river topographical expeditions, accompanied troops involved with the Mexican War, and made up California’s own geological survey. Among these early naturalists are famous names—David Douglas, Thomas Nuttall, John Charles Fremont, William Brewer—as well as those who are less well-known, including Paolo Botta, Richard Hinds, and Sara Lemmon.

Download or read book The Literature of the California Black Rail written by Sanford R. Wilbur and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few birds have remained so little known as the California black rail. Although the first specimens were collected on or before 1859 and reported in 1874, its life history, distribution, and status have remained obscure enough that even a sight record of the bird is deemed worthy of report in some ornithological publications. The 84 papers and notes both summarized in this report and included in its bibliography included essentially all that is currently known about the California black rail. Only 11 of these papers consider the life history of this rail in any detail. The rest are distribution notes and some of the more important papers on the closely related eastern black rail. The latter are included for comparative purposes, or because they may lend clues to currently unknown facets of the life history of the western race.
