John James LaForest Audubon: An English Perspective Published privately by Christine E. Jackson, 2013 - 234 Seiten « The historical and social background places Audubon's story in an English context, while the unfolding events of the era, such as the coming of the railways, the intense political interest in slavery and reform of the voting system, had impacts on his life while living in the country. Both naturalists and historians will find much of interest in this account of English society and its response to the genius of Audubon. » -- Page 4 de la couverture. |
