George Bird Grinnell , 1849-1938, American naturalist and student of Native American life, b. Brooklyn, N.Y., grad. Yale (B.A., 1870; Ph.D., 1880). He accompanied Custer's Black Hills expedition as naturalist (1874), was with William Ludlow's expedition to Yellowstone Park (1875), and was a member of the Harriman Alaska expedition in 1899. He was editor (1876-1911) of Forest and Stream and was prominent in preservation of wildlife and in conservation movements. He organized the first Audubon Society and was an organizer of the New York Zoological Society.
This book is a photo montage of the heritage of tinkering and building without restrictions from codes, rules, and with a freedom that is classically american at it's roots. This is a great look into the vernacular architecture which is cultivated by builders using what they have available. Both Academically intriguing and heartwarming.
