No Woman Tenderfoot: Florence Merriam Bailey, Pioneer Naturalist

By Harriet Kofalk

Book Overview

Years before pesticides and other pollutants began to endanger species, humans had no trouble finding less-sophisticated ways of endangering wildlife. When the twentieth century had barely begun, the passenger pigeons had been slain to the last and the American bison had been hunted to the brink of extinction. Love of and concern for nature called people like Florence Merriam Bailey to action.
