The River of the Mother of God and Other Essays

by Aldo Leopold

edited by Susan L. Flader and J. Barid Callicott

Flader and Callicott have compiled a collection of Leopold’s unpublished essays from the archives of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and published papers from a variety of periodicals covering the years 1904-47. The chronological arrangement of the 59 essays reveals the development of Leopold’s beliefs over time. A short introduction describing the circumstances in which it was written and the intended audience precedes each essay. A biographical chronology and the introduction trace Leopold’s life.
