NY, Walker and Company, (1993). Profiles of Midwesterners (in Illinois and Missouri) working to protect ecosystems threatened by suburban sprawl, intensive farming, shrinking wetlands, pollution, dams, etc. Inscribed by the author: "To John Bouseman, a dedicated conservationist and proud native of Illinois, with respect and gratitude, Tony." Fine in a fine dust jacket, with blurbs by Kurt Vonnegut and by William Allen, who reviewed the book for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. A copy of Allen's review is included, with an autograph note signed from Fitzpatrick to Bouseman written on it, as Bouseman apparently knew the reviewer. The University of Illinois has a John K. Bouseman Natural History Survey Library Endowment Fund supporting the library's acquisitions in natural history. Uncommon signed, let alone with a good association like this. [#035871] SOLD
