When William Beebe was born in 1877, scientists had only begun to explore the natural world, a world that fascinated Beebe even as a child. He studied migratory birds, rainforest canopies, and ocean depths. He soon realized that collecting animal specimens-live ones for zoos and dead ones for taxidermy-was not the best way to learn about them. Beebe was a pioneer of ecology, observing wildlife in their natural habitats. Explorer, inventor and conservationist, Beebe continues to inspire naturalists today. Afterword includes quotes from Beebe's writing. Glossary. Resources. Full-color illustrations in acrylic, gouache, and India ink.
