The magazine constituted one of the first efforts to preserve bird species decimated by the women's hat trade, hunting, and loss of habitat. Within two years, however, for practical reasons, Grinnell dissolved both the magazine and the society. Remarkably, Grinnell's mission was soon revived by women and men who believed in it, and the work continues today. In this, the only comprehensive history of the first Audubon Society (1886-1889), Carolyn Merchant presents the exceptional story of George Bird Grinnell and his writings and legacy. The book features Grinnell's biographies of ornithologists John James Audubon and Alexander Wilson and his editorials and descriptions of Audubon's bird paintings. This primary documentation combined with Carolyn Merchant's insightful analysis casts new light on Grinnell, the origins of the first Audubon Society, and the conservation of avifauna. 606 $aBirds$xHistory 606 $aOrnithology$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2gsafd 615 0$aBirds$xHistory. 615 0$aOrnithology$xHistory. 676 $a598.092 700 $aMerchant$b Carolyn$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0494053 702 $aGrinnell$b George Bird$f1849-1938, 712 02$aFurthermore, 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798405403321 996 $aSpare the Birds$93801295 997 $aUNINA
