By trekking hundreds of miles, everywhere asking about legendary natural features or curiosities, Dean Bennett discovered an intriguing array of places where the original New England remains -- unusual, often beautiful, sometimes awe-inspiring, and ever fascinating. Pockets of old growth forest stand unharvested. Caves and dinosaur footprints and half-forgotten curiosities such as Devil's Foot Rock lie hidden. Undammed rivers form spectacular waterfalls. Rare animals and plants maintain toeholds here and there. Bennett's book shows you all of these and more.

Forgotten Grasslands of the South is the study of one of the biologically richest and most endangered ecosystems in North America. In a seamless blend of science and personal observation, renowned ecologist Reed Noss explains the natural history of southern grasslands, their origin and history, and the physical determinants of grassland distribution, including ecology, soils, landform, and hydrology. In addition to offering fascinating new information about these little-studied ecosystems, Noss demonstrates how natural history is central to the practice of conservation. Although theory and experimentation have recently dominated the field of ecology, ecologists are coming to realize how these distinct approaches are not divergent but complementary, and that pursuing them together can bring greater knowledge and understanding of how the natural world works and how we can best conserve it. This long-awaited work sets a new standard for scientific literature and is essential reading for those who study and work to conserve the grasslands of the South as well as for everyone who is fascinated by the natural world.

The story of the world's largest, longest, and best financed scientific expedition of all time, triumphantly successful, gruesomely tragic, and never before fully told The immense 18th-century scientific journey, variously known as the Second Kamchatka Expedition or the Great Northern Expedition, from St. Petersburg across Siberia to the coast of North America, involved over 3,000 people and cost Peter the Great over one-sixth of his empire's annual revenue. Until now recorded only in academic works, this 10-year venture, led by the legendary Danish captain Vitus Bering and including scientists, artists, mariners, soldiers, and laborers, discovered Alaska, opened the Pacific fur trade, and led to fame, shipwreck, and "one of the most tragic and ghastly trials of suffering in the annals of maritime and arctic history.

Excerpt from Nature: Addresses and Lectures The first eight volumes of the present edition of Mr. Emerson's writings contain his collected Es says as he left them, except some revision of the punctuation and the correction of obvious mistakes. The ninth volume comprises the pieces chosen by Mr. Emerson from the Poems and may-day to form the Selected Poems, with the addi tion of some poems which were omitted in that se lection, and some that have remained unpublished. In many instances emendations which were pen cilled in the margin by Mr. Emerson, but were not adopted in the Selected Poems, are now in troduced, upon the ground that, as they seem to have suggested themselves at the time when his powers were in their fullest vigor, it may fairly be supposed that he would, upon reconsideration, have admitted them. The tenth and eleventh vol umes consist of lectures hitherto unprinted, and of Occasional Addresses and other prose-writin gs which have appeared separately or in periodicals.

Excerpt from Nature and Human Nature Thinks I to myself, as I overheard a person inquire of the servant at the door, in an unmistakeable voice and tone, "Is the Squire to hum?" that can be no one else than my old friend Sam Slick the Clockmaker. But it could admit of no doubt when he proceeded, "If he is, tell him I am here." "Who shall I say, Sir?" The stranger paused a moment, and then said, "It's such an everlastin' long name, I don't think you can carry it all to wunst, and I don't want it broke in two. Tell him it's a gentleman that calculates to hold a protracted meeten here to-night. Come, don't stand starin' there on the track, you might get run over. Don't you hear the engine coming? Shunt off now." Ah, my old friend," said I, advancing, and shaking him by the hand, "how are you?" "As hearty as a buck," he replied, "though I can't jist jump quite so high now." "I knew you," I said, "the moment I heard your voice, and if I had not recognised that, I should have known your talk." "That's because I am a Yankee, sir," he said, "no two of us look alike, or talk alike; but being free and enlightened citizens, we jist talk as we please." "Ah, my good friend, you always please when you talk, and that is more than can be said of most men." "And so will you," he replied, "if you use soft sawder that way. Oh, dear me! it seems but the other day that you laughed so at my theory of soft sawder and human natur', don't it? They were pleasant days, warn't they? I often think of them, and think of them with pleasure too. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Nature There are days which occur in this climate, at almost any season of the year, wherein the world reaches its perfection, when the air, the heavenly bodies, and the earth, make a harmony, as if na ture would indulge her offspring; when, in these bleak upper sides of the planet, nothing is to desire that we have heard of the happiest latitudes, and we bask in the shin ing hours of Florida and Cuba.
