George Bird Grinnell
|
|
George Bird Grinnell (1849-1938) was a historian, naturalist,
explorer, sportsman, and conservationist. He helped to establish Yellowstone Park
and Glacier National Park, co-founded the first Audubon Society, and along with
Teddy Roosevelt, co-founded the Boone and Crockett Club. Grinnell was a long-time
editor of Forest and Stream magazine and wrote several landmark
books on the Pawnee, Blackfoot and Cheyenne peoples, having lived with and befriended
the last generation of people from the Buffalo Days. Grinnell’s career as a writer
and recorder of Indian way of life would later be characterized by Stephen Ambrose
(author of Band of Brothers) as “of incalculable benefit to every student
of Western or Indian history.”
Grinnell’s work is the focus of the fully illustrated title The
Cheyenne Indians, which features over 100 photos and illustrations.
