SETON ERNEST THOMPSON; EDITED BY JEREMY M. JOHNSTON & CHARLES R. PRESTON
Wahb: The Biography Of A Grizzly
University of Oklahoma Press Norman: 2015. Softcover. Brand new book. First published more than a century ago The Biography of a Grizzly recounts the life of a fictitious bear named Wahb who lived and died in the Greater Yellowstone region. This new edition combines Ernest Thompson Seton's classic tale and original illustrations with historical and scientific context for Wahb's story providing a thorough understanding of the setting cultural connections biology and ecology of Seton's best-known book. By the time The Biography of a Grizzly was published in 1900 grizzly bears had been hunted out of much of their historical range in North America. The characterization of Wahb along with Seton's other anthropomorphic tales of American wildlife helped to change public perceptions and promote conservation. As editors Jeremy M. Johnston and Charles R. Preston remind us however Seton's approach to writing about animals put him at the center of the "Nature-Faker" controversy of the early twentieth century when John Burroughs and Theodore Roosevelt among others denounced sentimental representations of wildlife. The editors address conservation scientists' continuing concerns about inaccurate depictions of nature in popular culture. Despite its anthropomorphism Seton's paradoxical book imparts a good deal of insightful and accurate natural history even as its exaggerations shaped early-twentieth-century public opinion on conservation in often counterproductive ways. By complicating Seton's enthralling tale with scientific observations of grizzly behavior in the wild Johnston and Preston evaluate the story's accuracy and bring the story of Yellowstone grizzlies into the present day. Preserving the 1900 edition's original design and illustrations Wahb brings new understanding to an American classic updating the book for current and future generations. 112 blank-and-white Illustrations 240 pages 5.25" x 8". Ernest Thompson Seton 1860-1946 was a British-born author wildlife artist cofounder of the Boy Scouts of America and an early pioneer of the modern school of animal fiction writing whose best-known book is Wild Animals I Have Known. Jeremy M. Johnston is Curator of the Buffalo Bill Museum and Western American History and Managing Editor of The Papers of William F. Cody at the McCracken Research Library Buffalo Bill Center of the West Cody Wyoming. Charles R. Preston is the Willis McDonald IV Senior Curator of Natural Science at the Draper Natural History Museum Buffalo Bill Center of the West in Cody Wyoming. His publications include Golden Eagle: Sovereign of the Skies with G. Leppart photographer and An Expedition Guide to the Nature of Yellowstone and the Draper Museum of Natural History. "The tale of Wahb has been a classic of 'Yellowstonia' since the book was first published in 1900. In a 1903 magazine journalist Ray Stannard Baker included a drawing of a lady tourist on a Yellowstone stagecoach reading a copy of the book. Jeremy Johnston and Charles Preston have done us a favor by making Seton's timeless story available again this time accompanied by the relevant discussions of nature fakers and evolving science that are so important to appreciating the work."�Lee Whittlesey Historian Yellowstone National Park University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2015 paperback

The Trail of the Sandhill Stag and 60 Drawings

The book covers have some toning to the edges and spine and there is a small red scratch to the bottom front edge. The text pages are mostly clean and bright.

He later became involved in a literary debate known as the nature fakers controversy after John Burroughs published an article in 1903 in the Atlantic Monthly attacking writers of sentimental animal stories. The controversy lasted for four years and included important American environmental and political figures of the day including President Theodore Roosevelt." . Charles Scribner's Sons hardcover
