See more detail | | Skulls and Bones
A great book for trackers- and naturalists-in-training, approaching the subject from the angle of learning to "read" skeletal structures to identify the animals' lifestyle and habits, therefore identifying the animal, whose skull and bit of scattered skeleton you have perhaps discovered in the field. Though the book does not shy away from scientific language and understanding, the author has purposefully written a book that is as accessible, friendly, understandable, and clear as possible, and it definitely comes through.

Amish dairy farmer David Kline pays homage to this longstanding intimacy in essays that celebrate the splendid and mysterious order governing the plant and animal life on his Ohio farm. These essays go beyond the genre of natural history, and thus greatly increase their value, by showing us also a kind of life in which delight in the wild creatures is ordinary.

Earth MovedThey destroy plant diseases. They break down toxins. They plough the earth. They transform forests. They've survived two mass extinctions, including the one that wiped out the dinosaur. Not bad for a creature that's deaf, blind, and spineless.

See more detail | | Buffalo Book
Buffalo Book. No wild animal has had a more important role in America's history than the buffalo. The Buffalo Book captures the story and the significance of this great animal. The journals and the memoirs of nineteenth-century explorers and travelers in the American West often told of viewing buffalo massed together as far as the eye could see. This book appropriately covers the subject of the buffalo as extensively as that animal covered the plains.

See more detail | | Wild Apples and Other Natural History Essays
This volume of seven essays and a late lecture by Henry D. Thoreau makes available important material written both before and after Walden. William Rossi's introduction puts the essays in the context of Thoreau's other major works, both chronologically and intellectually. Rossi also shows how these writings relate to Thoreau's life and career as both writer and naturalist: his readings of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Charles Darwin; his failed bid for commercial acceptance of his work; and his pivotal encounter with the utter wilderness of the Maine woods.
