From dust jacket: Jay Norwood (Ding) Darling, a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist, waged a lifelong battle for conservation with an often indifferent American public. His life was fun and frustrating, energetic and profound. The intriguing Ding worked long hours and played with enthusiasm. He ate pie for breakfast. He visited Russia at the invitation of Stalin. He cavorted with Herbert Hoover. He knew Will Rogers, Henry Ford, Edna Ferber, Bernard Baruch, Robert Ripley, Ring Lardner and scores of other luminaries from the strident first half of the twentieth century in America. His name was a household word and his distinctive signature was his trademark. Against the nostalgic backdrop of Ding's times and his people, author David Lendt traces the story of the cartoonists active life and meteoric career. Lendt follows Darling from his high birth in Michigan, through his flamboyant college days, to his years as a nationally syndicated cartoonist whose work appeared in more than 100 daily newspapers serving millions of readers across the country. Eighty-eight carefully selected and revealing cartoons, drawings, and photographs amplify and complement the telling of Ding's story. His cartoons, many of which are as fresh today as a generation ago, continue to appear in contemporary textbooks and anthologies. Lendt recounts Darling's "second career" as a conservationist and his struggles as an advocate of environmental sanity. Darling served as Franklin D. Roosevelt's chief of the Biological Survey -- forerunner of the Fish and Wildlife Service -- and dragged that lethargic agency to its feet. He waged two-fisted war against game hogs and fought successfully for the creation and expansion of a federal wildlife refuge system. Darling later formed and was the president of the National Wildlife Federation, the largest organization of its kind today. This lively chronology of Ding's life, with its penetrating analysis of Darling's complex personality, describes a man of genius, intensity, human warmth, and talent. It paints a portrait of a decent outdoorsman who grew up close to the earth and who remained committed to keeping the laws of nature for the sake of man's survival.
