Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Interesting stories, well-written, but rather elementary in its approach. It would have been better for me to have had a more scientific approach to the book. The author was a journalist so that was not going to happen. The random and obscure stories were interesting and relevant, there just needed to be more substance. ( ) An excellent source book about the dominant life form on the great plains of North America. I have always found them thrilling animals, and they formed such a large part of the history of the native peoples of Western north America. This should be essential reading for environmentalists and Western Historians. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
This survey of the entire history of the buffalo gives special emphasis to early twentieth century efforts to save the animal from extinction. The Pablo-Allard buffalo herd on the Flathead and it's importance in preserving the animal are discussed in a chapter "Those who saved the buffalo" (p. 222-240). A chapter on the white buffalo (p. 206-221) pays considerable attention to the National Bison Range. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
