Good Press, 2019

In 'The Extermination of the American Bison' by William T. Hornaday, the author delves into the devastating impact of human activities on the once-thriving bison population in North America. Hornaday's meticulous research and detailed accounts paint a vivid picture of the slaughter and near extinction of this iconic species. His compelling narrative style and use of primary sources make this book a valuable contribution to both historical and environmental literature, shedding light on a dark chapter in American history. The book serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of unchecked human destruction of wildlife and landscapes. William T. Hornaday, a renowned zoologist and conservationist, was deeply passionate about wildlife preservation. His experiences witnessing the decline of the bison herd and other species fueled his dedication to conservation efforts. Hornaday's expertise and advocacy are evident throughout the book, as he advocates for the protection of wildlife and ecosystems. I highly recommend 'The Extermination of the American Bison' to readers interested in environmental history, conservation, and the impact of human activities on wildlife. Hornaday's work is not only informative but also serves as a call to action to protect and preserve our natural world for future generations.
