Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The introduction earlier this century of Norwegian reindeer to the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia provided scientists with the unusual opportunity of studying the interaction between a large arctic herbivore and a southern ecosystem that had not previously been exposed to grazing by mammals. Originally published in 1988, this book synthesises the results of many years' research into this fascinating ecological situation. The author develops the observations into two main themes. First,a comparative study of the biology and ecology of a deer that occurs in a wide variety of Arctic habitats. Secondly, an investigation into the ways in which an introduced population adapts to a new environment, its relevance to the population ecology of mammals and to the conservation of southern island ecosystems. In doing this, the author discusses many topics including reproductive biology, feeding ecology, growth, mortality and population dynamics. This in-depth study of a single species in an alien environment will appeal to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, research workers in wildlife management and ecology, conservationists and polar scientists.

Zustand: Good. - 18 words penned in black ink on both sides of a 4-1/2 inch high by 3-5/8 inch wide sheet of United Service Club letterhead with the club's raised insignia printed in blind at top left. Signed in the opening of the letter: "Sir Fenwick Williams regrets." with the place and date at the foot of the note: "U.S.C. / 14th June". A strip of document tape has been mounted down the right edge of the verso, covering up 1 word of the note. Good. Williams writes regretting he is unable to dine with Mrs. Ford because of a previous engagement. The note is accompanied by a newspaper obituary.General Sir William Fenwick Williams, 1st Baronet of Kars [1800-1883] was born in Nova Scotia. He was a renowned military leader for the British during the Victorian era, remembered for his gallant defense of the town of Kars during the Crimean War. He and other British officers inspired the poorly equipped Turkish soldiers to repel Russian attacks for three months. Starvation and lack of ammunition finally forced them to surrender, but they did so on their own terms. Williams was imprisoned but was treated very well and was released when the war ended in 1856. A knighthood, a baronetcy with a pension for life and many other honors were bestowed on Williams for his actions. From 1865 to 1867 he was the first Lieutenant Governor of his birth province of Nova Scotia.

4to. Six total pages, approximately 1000 words total; accompanied by original mailing envelopes for both, addressed by Williams, and rough typescripts of the letters. Both letters with old fold lines, for mailing, but very good. In the first letter, Williams criticizes a recent Senate vote on the World Court, "I think the reservations were an illustration of unpardonable National arrogance. When will Senators learn that the U.S. are only one of the civilized and sovereign nations of the world we had the leadership of the world we threw it away -- of course, neither the Hibernians nor the Klan want even what the Senate did," and [of] Colonel House's recent book ("What Really Happened in Paris," 1921), "I am anxious to learn if I can (between the lines) just when Wilson realized that House thought himself the President and Wilson his mannikin I think it was after Wilson returned to Versailles where he had left House locum tenens ["in his place"]." In the second letter, Williams offers a positive take on President Coolidge, "he has gone back to Jeffersonianism in some things notably in tax reduction, debt reduction, and to more economical and frugal administration, though much is to be desired on that score. About 25% of the present Federal Civil Service could be quite dispensed with his veto of the Populist's 'Farm Relief' legislation had made him intensely unpopular in Western populistic strongholds,"; his thoughts on prohibition, "even those to whom [it] is an 'awful inconvenience' (like myself), it has recommended itself by the immense good it has done politically and morally especially for the Negroes. Many race troubles grew out of drunkenness of one or the other side, or both wise white men fear it and the foolish and poor Darkies can not pay for it. The boot-legger wants cash"; regrets for non-membership in the League of Nations, "if for the last six years we had cooperated with Europe to restore economic conditions so as to give its other members a sense of security and power, the world would have been on the road to prosperity and we especially our farmers move abundantly and stably prosperous than we are even now the League can never work with maximum efficiency without us"; and criticism of our policies in the Philippines, "they will continue to give the Governor General more power to be greedily exercised until another revolt occurs to be put viciously under foot until no Filipino will dare breathe to another the word 'Independence' and then the Governor General will say 'See we told you so' mighty few white people will let an inferior race go as long as it profits to best provide them." Williams, who was a supporter of silver and an opponent of tariffs, became an ardent supporter of Woodrow Wilson and was a leader in the losing effort to join the League of Nations following World War I; Seagrave (1875-1956) was a newspaperman and lawyer in Massachusetts, serving as Assistant Attorney General for his home state in the late 1910s and early 1920s and working in Democratic Party politics.
