SUMMARY:Beaverland: How One Weird Rodent Made America
DESCRIPTION:Leila Philip\, professor of English at the College of the Holy Cross\, highlights how beavers played an oversized role in American history and how they can play an important role in its future.  Beaverland is a poignant personal narrative\, a startling portrait of the secretive world of the contemporary fur trade\, and an engrossing ecological and historical investigation of these heroic animals who\, once trapped to the point of extinction\, have returned to the landscape as one of the greatest conservation stories of the 20th century. \n \nProfessor Philip will be joined in conversation by Richard Primack\, Professor of Biology at Boston University\, whose research in conservation biology utilizes historical field notes from Henry David Thoreau and current observations to study how climate change affects the timing of seasonal biological events. \nRegister using the form below. \nFree for Members | $10 Non-Members | Free Virtual \nBooks are available for sale and signing thanks to our partners at the Concord Bookshop.
