Beskrivelse af The Alps of King-Kern Divide (1907)
The Alps Of King-Kern Divide is a book written by David Starr Jordan and originally published in 1907. The book is a detailed account of Jordan's travels through the King-Kern Divide region of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in California, USA. Jordan was a prominent American ichthyologist, educator, and peace activist, and in this book, he describes his experiences exploring the rugged terrain of the Sierra Nevada mountains. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of his journey, including his encounters with wildlife, the geological features of the area, and the challenges he faced while navigating the difficult terrain.Throughout the book, Jordan provides vivid descriptions of the natural beauty of the region, including its majestic peaks, crystal-clear lakes, and lush forests. He also discusses the impact of human activity on the environment, including the effects of logging and mining on the region's natural resources.The Alps Of King-Kern Divide is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the natural history of the Sierra Nevada mountains, as well as those interested in the history of conservation and environmentalism in the United States. With its detailed descriptions of the region's flora and fauna, and its thoughtful reflections on the relationship between humans and the natural world, this book remains a classic of American nature writing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
