Sinossi

In "Bird Tales (Illustrated Edition)," Thornton Burgess masterfully weaves a collection of enchanting narratives that bring to life the rich tapestry of avian life found in North America. Each story is imbued with a charming pastoral quality, drawing readers into the whimsical yet educational world of birds, exploring their behaviors, habitats, and intricate relationships with nature. The lush illustrations accompanying the text enhance the storytelling experience, making it a delightful read for both children and adults alike. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century environmental awareness, Burgess's prose celebrates the beauty of nature while subtly imparting lessons on conservation and empathy toward wildlife. Thornton Burgess, a prolific author and naturalist, was deeply influenced by his childhood wanderings in the woods of Massachusetts, where he developed a profound appreciation for nature. His work in the early 1900s not only reflects a growing interest in ecology but also echoes the burgeoning conservation movement of the time. Drawing from his experiences, Burgess sought to educate children about the natural world, believing that literature could inspire stewardship and awareness for the environment. This beautifully illustrated edition of "Bird Tales" is an essential read for anyone interested in nature, literature, or the intersection of the two. Burgess's ability to capture the essence of his feathered protagonists makes this collection an engaging and educational tool for young readers, fostering a long-lasting love for birds and nature. Highly recommended for families, educators, and bird enthusiasts alike, this book promises to inspire curiosity and compassion.

    Uncertain Climes - Debating...

    Uncertain Climes looks to the late nineteenth century to reveal how climate anxiety was a crucial element in the emergence of American modernity. 
     
    Even people who still refuse to accept the reality of human-induced climate change would have to agree that the topic has become inescapable in the United States in recent decades. But as Joseph Giacomelli shows in Uncertain Climes, this is actually nothing new: as far back as Gilded Age America, climate uncertainty has infused major debates on economic growth and national development. 
      
    In this ambitious examination of late-nineteenth-century understandings of climate, Giacomelli draws on the work of scientists, foresters, surveyors, and settlers to demonstrate how central the subject was to the emergence of American modernity. Amid constant concerns about volatile weather patterns and the use of natural resources, nineteenth-century Americans developed a multilayered discourse on climate and what it might mean for the nation’s future. Although climate science was still in its nascent stages during the Gilded Age, fears and hopes about climate change animated the overarching political struggles of the time, including expansion into the American West. Giacomelli makes clear that uncertainty was the common theme linking concerns about human-induced climate change with cultural worries about the sustainability of capitalist expansionism in an era remarkably similar to the United States’ unsettled present.

    In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, North American and European governments generously funded the discoveries of such famous paleontologists and geologists as Henry de la Beche, William Buckland, Richard Owen, Thomas Hawkins, Edward Drinker Cope, O. C. Marsh, and Charles W. Gilmore. In Patrons of Paleontology, Jane Davidson explores the motivation behind this rush to fund exploration, arguing that eagerness to discover strategic resources like coal deposits was further fueled by patrons who had a genuine passion for paleontology and the fascinating creatures that were being unearthed. These early decades of government support shaped the way the discipline grew, creating practices and enabling discoveries that continue to affect paleontology today.
