Extract
It is appropriate that the University of Chicago Press publish this work, for the University of Chicago was at the center of many of the happenings I cover here. In essence, the University of Chicago was a private land-grant institution, coming along late, snagging talent from East Coast universities, and co-leading field biology into the age of modern quantitative ecology. I thank my editor, Christie Henry, and her staff for their nurturing. I thank Genevieve Arlie, Neil Bernstein, Holly Carver, Marty Crump, Paul Dayton, Steve Dunsky, Mark Edlund, Frank Egerton, Harry Greene, Susan Lannoo, Curt Meine, Mike Mossman, Erin Muths, Linda Rozumalski, Bill Souder, Fred Swanson, and Linda Weir for comments on earlier manuscript drafts. I thank Rochelle Stiles and Alisa Gallant for preparing the figures. Gathering the historical photographs presented an unexpected challenge, and I thank Ellen Alers, John Boardman, Randy Bovbjerg, Victor Bovbjerg, David Brakke, Susan Braxton, Julia Buckley, Joshua Caster, Christine Colburn, Heather Cole, Sheri Dolfen, Larry Dorr, Steve Dunsky, Jonathan Eaker, Fred Errington, Christina Fidler, Chris Filstrup, Doris Hardy, Alfred Gardner, Rose Gulledge, Maria Kopecky, Michael Lange, Sarah Lathrop, Mark Madison, Lisa Marine, Daniel Meyer, Jennifer Mui, Erin Muths, Katie Nichols, Keiko Nishimoto, Matthew Perry, Desiree Ramirez, Nancy Ricketts, Marguerite Roby, Rose Rodriguez, David Rumsey, Amanda Shilling, Adrienne Sponberg, Linda Stahnke, Richard Stamm, Rochelle Stiles, Heidi Stover, Rebekah Tabah, Tony Thompson, John Waggener, Katherine Walter, Linda Weir, and Kelsey Zehner. And finally, Mark Madison at the National Conservation Training Center and David Miller at the Smithsonian kindly tolerated my questions about .32-caliber shotgun bore inserts, and I thank them for their insight.
