Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Association copy, signed on the title page by both Wallace and his son and co-author Page Stegner, with an inscription in Wallace's hand: "For Randy Bean, with the warmest wishes for a long fellowship." "Long" is underlined for emphasis. He means fellowship in two senses, as journalist Randy Bean had arrived at Stanford as a member of the 1982 class of the prestigious Professional Journalism Fellowships at Stanford University (later renamed the John S. Knight Journalism Fellowships). But her fellowship with Stegner and Stanford would deepen from there. After a stint at KQED, she returned to the campus in Palo Alto to found the Stanford Channel in 1995. And she produced Becoming Stanford, a two-part documentary on the university's first 100 years that featured Stegner prominently. A nice association and gift for a Cardinal fan. With photos by Eliot Porter. The book is fine. The jacket is very good with sun-fading to spine, minor wear to a few corners, and a small and discrete damp stain with half-inch tear along spine, both of which are not very noticeable. Uncommon when signed by both Wallace and Page Stegner. // Wood (+) River (=) Books specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, and environmental literature, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions.

"A book for the sportsman, and for those desirous of knowing how to distinguish these web-footed birdsand to learn their ways in their native wilds." Daniel Giraud Elliot (1835 1915) was a wealthy American zoologist and the founder of the American Ornithologist Union. He made expeditions to Africa and Alaska and was the first curator of zoology at the Field Museum in Chicago. From 1869 to 1879, he was in London and established strong links to British ornithologists and naturalists. Elliot used his wealth to publish a series of sumptuous books on birds and other animals. Elliot wrote the text himself and commissioned artists such as Joseph Wolf and Joseph Smit, both of whom had worked for John Gould, to provide the illustrations. Col. John E. Thayer (1862-1933) was one of twin boys born to Nathaniel Thayer II (a banker who financed building Harvard's Thayer Hall) and Cornelia van Rensselaer Thayer. Thayer graduated from Harvard College in 1885 and engaged in business before becoming one of the world's most prominent ornithologists. Thayer began collecting North American bird specimens and housed his collections close to his home in Lancaster. He used his wealth to sponsor various natural history expeditions and in 1906 he sent Wilmot W. Brown Jr. to Guadalupe Island off Pacific Mexico. In 1913, Thayer and other Harvard graduates sponsored an expedition to Alaska and Siberia, with Joseph S. Dixon and Winthrop Sprague Brooks as zoological collectors. He eventually built a beautiful brick building in 1903, opening it to the public as a museum a year later. Thayer became ill in 1928, and donated his collection of 28,000 skins and 15,000 eggs and nests to Harvard. These included the first clutches ever collected of spoon-billed sandpiper and surfbird. After Thayer's death Harvard received his collection of 3,500 mounted birds.
