Synopsis "David Douglas, a Naturalist at Work: An Illustrated Exploration Across Two Centuries in the Pacific Northwest"
Starting in 1825, David Douglas made the first systematic collections of flora and fauna across many parts of the greater Pacific Northwest. Colleagues in Great Britain then attached his name to more than 80 different species, including the region's iconic timber tree. A colorfully illustrated essay collection, David Douglas, a Naturalist at Work examines various aspects of Douglas' meteoric career, demonstrating connections between his work and the Pacific Northwest of today. From the Columbia River's perilous bar to luminous mountain wildflower blooms; from ever-changing technology frontiers to the quiet seasonal rhythms of tribal families gathering roots, Nisbet's compositions collapse time to shed light on the area's people and landscapes. Originally published in conjunction with a major museum exhibit, this is the first paperback edition.
