Rezension zu „The Wilderness of Denali “
One of my most treasured books as a boy was Charles Sheldon's The Wilderness of Denali. His book records everything from the cannibalistic habits of shrews to the mating behavior of Dali sheep. Five species of mammals were named in Sheldon's honor, and his crusading work led to the establishment of Mount McKinley National Park in 1917.--Mark Jenkins "Outside "
