" Perhaps a
majority of worthy books pertaining to the western half of
America look on the outdoors.
ADAMS, W. H. DAVENPORT (from the French of Benedict Revoil).
_The Hunter and the Trapper of North America_, London, 1875. A
strange book.
ARNOLD, OREN. _Wild Life in the Southwest_, Dallas, 1936.
Helpful chapters on various characteristic animals and plants.
OP.
BAILEY, VERNON. _Mammals of New Mexico_, United States
Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Biological Survey,
Washington, D. C., 1931. _Biological Survey of Texas_, 1905.
OP. The "North American Fauna Series," to which these two
books belong, contains or points to the basic facts covering
most of the mammals of the Southwest.
BAILLIE-GROHMAN, WILLIAM A. _Camps in the Rockies_, 1882. A
true sportsman, Baillie-Grohman was more interested in living
animals than in just killing. OP.
BEDICHEK, ROY. _Adventures with a Texas Naturalist_,
Doubleday, Garden City, N. Y., 1947. To be personal, Roy
Bedichek has the most richly stored mind I have ever met; it
is as active as it is full. Liberal in the true sense of the
word, it frees other minds. Here, using facts as a means, it
gives meanings to the hackberry tree, limestone, mockingbird,
Inca dove, Mexican primrose, golden eagle, the Davis
Mountains, cedar cutters, and many another natural phenomenon.
