Download or read book George Meléndez Wright written by Jerry Emory and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-04-03 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1927, at the age of twenty-three, George Meléndez Wright conceptualized and eventually funded the first wildlife survey of western National Parks, radically changing how the National Park Service (NPS) would manage natural resources under its charge. By the time Wright arrived in Yosemite National Park to work as a ranger naturalist-the first Hispanic person to occupy a professional position in the NPS-he had already visited every national park in the Western United States. At a time when national parks routinely fed bears garbage as part of "shows" and killed "bad" predators such as wolves and coyotes, Wright's new ideas for conservation set the stage for modern scientific management of parks and other public lands. Before his revolutionary ideas began to influence Park Service policy, however, Wright faced persistent pushback by an entrenched culture that disregarded wildlife apart from the role that fauna played as a tourist attraction. Nonetheless, he prevailed. Wright died tragically in a car accident in 1936, while working to establish parks and wildlife refuges on the US-Mexico border, and yet, to this day, he remains a celebrated figure among conservationists, wildlife experts, and park managers. Jerry Emory, a writer connected to Wright's family, draws on hundreds of letters, field notes, interviews, and other primary documents to offer both a biography of Wright and a historical account of a crucial period in the evolution of our parks. Including a foreword by former National Park Service director Jonathan Jarvis, the book explores and celebrates Wright's vision for science-based wildlife management and his vocal support of wilderness in our parks and asks if current practices have achieved his goals"--

Book excerpt: Although mountain goats are native to the Cascade range, they do not appear to have been present in Washington states's Olympic Mountains during historic times. Wildlife managers introduced goats in small numbers in what soon became Olympic National Park in 1925 and sporadically thereafter for the next twenty years. According to a 1981 statement by the National Park Service, the mountain goats in Olympic National Park "appear to be significantly altering the alpine ecosystem the park was designed to protect and preserve. As a result, park managers have argued that the goats must be eradicated". An eradication program has been in place for several years now. White Goats, White Lies does not argue for or against eradication of "exotics" in Olympic and other national parks. Rather it examines the science used to justify the current park position and questions the extent to which science is an afterthought in national park decisions.

Book excerpt: No author has attempted to write the history of all the newspapers on the North Olympic Peninsula—until now. Strait Press: A History of the News Media on the North Olympic Peninsula does that. There have been books that detailed the newspaper history in Clallam County, and two books covered the media history in Jefferson County. Now Strait Press encompasses both counties. This book is about not only newspapers but also radio stations and even television. The reader will learn which president came to Port Angeles in 1937 and was instrumental in establishing Olympic National Park. Creating that park was perhaps the most divisive issue in the history of the Port Angeles newspapers. You will discover why. Learn which newspaper owner in Sequim arrived and vowed to run the Sequim Press out of town and did it. Find out what well-known author spent a night in a Port Townsend jail on his way back from gold panning in the Klondike. In Forks, the reader will learn which newspaper owner became part of a quad marriage in which four sisters were wed in the same ceremony. The history of each area is discussed. Learn about mastodons, the Great Blowdown, devastating fires, oil spills, and how each paper handled 9/11. And whenever possible, the author infuses the discussion with humorous anecdotes. So pull up a chair and start your education of North Olympic news media.
