[WYOMING]. First edition. 8vo. Limited edition of 238 copies. Tan fabricoid, titles stamped in gold gilt on the front cover and spine, xi [blank], 13-188 pp., acknowledgments, a note about the sources, introduction, illustrated, maps, endnotes, bibliography, index, about the editors. The personal journals of Barnum Brown and J. P. Sams give not only an account of the scientific exploration for dinosaur bones, but also a view into Wyoming when it was still just a territory and cowboys, Indians, cavalry, dinosaur hunters, and oil explorers shared the plains at the same time. The journals are written in a way that is easy to follow and gives day-to-day accounts from the expedition back when finding bones was only a part of the adventure of a dinosaur hunt. This book is full of history and early-day insight, and is not just for dinosaur lovers. As new, unread copy, without dust jacket, as issued.

Condizione: Sehr gut. National Geographic (whole issue), vol. 162, no. 4, October 1982. Beautifully illustrated article (pp. 478 - 485) on the species of deer originating from China and in the 19th century only preseverd in an imperial hunting park in China. In China it was known as ssu-pu-hsiang, four unlikes, as it was said to have the neck of a camel, the hooves of a cow, the tail of a donkey and the antlers of a deer (Fritz Mühlenweg`s Viernichtgleich). Few anmials were sent in the 19th century by the emperor to European zoos. In China, most of the animals escaped the park, when it was flooded, the rest were killed when European troops plundered the imperial palaces. To enable the species to survive all anmials surviving in Europe were sold to the Duke of Bedford, who was at that time most successfull in breeding them, on his estate around Woburn Abbey - a fascinating story.

Tan fabricoid, titles stamped in gold gilt on the front cover and spine, xi [blank], 13-188 pp., acknowledgments, a note about the sources, introduction, illustrated, maps, endnotes, bibliography, index, about the editors. One June Morning in 1895, five men . a politician, a professor, two students and an interested citizen left Lawrence, Kansas for the Cretaceous rocks of eastern Wyoming, hoping to find dinosaur bones. The two students . Barnum Brown and Elmer Riggs .would go on to lead two of the most important American careers in dinosaur paleontology of the twentieth century. Professor Samuel Wendell Williston wanted the skull of a Triceratops. What would come to be called the Kansas University Expedition of 1895 would succeed in finding just such a skull. Two accounts of the expedition survive, and both are offered here. Both offer fascinating snapshots of the West at the time. They give not only an account of the scientific exploration for dinosaur bones, but also a view into Wyoming when it was still just a territory and cowboys, Indians, cavalry, dinosaur hunters, and oil explorers shared the plains at the same time. The first journal was kept by Brown on his wagon journey from Kansas to Wyoming. The second and far more extensive journal was kept by James Polk Sams, a middle-aged Kansas farmer, former probate judge, and member of the Board of Regents of the University of Kansas. The journals are written in a way that is easy to follow and gives day-to-day accounts. As new, unread copy, without dust jacket, as issued.
