Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. First edition. With a signed note from the author affixed to the front pastedown, reading in full: "Norma: I have learned that my small book on the founding of the Audubon movement is still in print but---the price has been raised to $49.95. Absurd! Herein enclosed for your library is a slightly used copy. You many now and then find it useful a reference. Oliver Orr." One of the author's own copies then, passed along. Orr was a specialist in American History at the Library of Congress. With a bookplate reading "From the Library of Bill & Norma Siebenheller" at the opposite corner of the pastedown. The Siebenheller's were bird enthusiasts who wrote a longtime column called "Footnotes on Nature" first for the State Island Advance then the Translyvania Times. Norma Siebenheller also wrote articles for Birders Digest. A biography of T. Gilbert Pearson, an important figure in early bird conservation. He was the first president of the North Carolina Audubon Society and a founding member (the original secretary) of the National Audubon Society. He was also an all-around interesting story, described for instance as "the member of the Boone and Crockett Club with the smallest bank account." He grew up in a cabin in the woods of Florida where he began to hunt and collect birds; he traded his collection of birds for college tuition and afterward devoted himself to conservation, becoming the first chair of biology and geology at what's now UNC-Greensboro. After William Dutcher died, Pearson followed as the second president of the National Audubon Society, a post he held for fourteen years.
