The Grass Problem: Agrostology, Agriculture, and Environmental Transformation in the New South
When the nation emerged from the Civil War, good grass was still at the core of most people’s ideas about good agriculture. The American South’s two extensive systems of agriculture—plantation-based cotton growing and open-range husbandry—thus stood in marked contrast to the grass-based, intensive agriculture of the North and seemingly represented an obstacle to the region’s full economic and cultural reintegration with the rest of the nation. Be…

The Invisible and Indeterminable Value of Ecology: From Malaria Control to Ecological Research in the American South
This essay tells the story of the Emory University Field Station, a malaria research station in southwest Georgia that operated from 1939 to 1958. Using the tools of environmental history and the history of science, it examines the station's founding, its fieldwork, and its place within the broader history of malaria control, eradication, and research. A joint effort of Emory University, the U.S. Public Health Service, and the Communicable Diseas…
A Cosmopolitan Weed of the World: Following Bermudagrass
This essay is an exercise in “following.” It tells the story of Cynodon dactylon—better known as common bermudagrass—to explore why people either valued or devalued the grass through time and what the changing social status of one species might tell us about the intersection of biology, ecology, and culture. In the process, it makes two additional points: grasses are historically important, and agricultural history is a site uniquely disposed to …
Nature Next Door: Cities and Trees in the American Northeast
The extent of reforestation in the American Northeast in the twentieth century is nothing short of remarkable, especially considering that it is the most urbanized region of the nation. Once 75 percent deforested, the region is now 75 percent forested. In this elegant volume, Ellen Stroud asks how that happened and finds unexpected answers. Her argument is twofold. One, the region became reforested not because of agricultural abandonment but thro…
Burned to be wild: Herbert Stoddard and the Roots of Ecological Conservation in the Southern Longleaf Pine Forest
This essay examines the work of wildlife biologist Herbert Stoddard, who came to the longleaf pine-grassland forests of south Georgia in 1924 to study the bobwhite quail, and stayed to develop a method of land management that stressed ecological habitat over the dominant production-oriented model. Stoddard's major early accomplishments were threefold: He helped to create the new profession of wildlife management, he fought for the reintroduction …

IX. Letter from Albert Way, Esq. Director, to Sir Henry Ellis, K.H., F.R.S., Sec., on Palimpsest Sepulchral Brasses; and on a remarkable instance at Hedgerley, Buckinghamshire
The attention of every one who has been interested in researches into the Sepulchral Antiquities, either of the classical or the medieval period, must have been called to observe the wanton recklessness with which the memorials of one generation have been displaced to make way for those of a succeeding age, and the materials appropriated to the purposes of the occasion. Numerous are the instances that might be cited, where sepulchral brasses have…

The curious bronze collar, an unique variety of the beaded torc, according to the classification of these interesting objects proposed by Mr. Birch, was discovered a few years since, in Lochar Moss, Dumfriesshire, about two miles to the North of Cumlongan Castle. That extensive turbary appears to occupy a site once covered by a forest of great extent: the trunks of large trees are frequently found in it, and numerous vestiges of various periods h…
