SCHALLER, George B.
A Naturalist and Other Beasts
San Francisco, Sierra Club Books, (2007). A retrospective collection of pieces from Schaller's life in the field, with a new introduction by the author for each chapter. Warmly inscribed by Schaller in 2009: "To Catherine and Bill/ with deep gratitude for many years of friendship." Fine in a fine dust jacket, with blurbs by a virtual Who's Who of environmental writing: Peter Matthiessen; Jane Goodall; Bill McKibben; and Edward O. Wilson. Schaller, among many other accomplishments and activities, accompanied Matthiessen on the trip documented in the National Book Award-winning, The Snow Leopard.
