1995ABE-1681176113112Addison Wesley Publishing Company 1995. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. Inscribed on the "Also by" page: "For Charles Colburn see page 87 with best wishes John Hanson Mitchell." Pages 87-90 detail an encounter and conversation on Hanson's 15-mile bushwack pilgrimage to Thoreau's grave with an old man on his longstanding family land along Nonset Brook in Concord a character representative of those with deep attachments to this place. The implication of the inscription we think is that Charles Colburn is this man as this book was acquired in Concord. If so a neat book inscribed to one of its characters. Mitchell is a winner of the John Burroughs Medal for nature writing. Fine book in a very good price-clipped jacket with some light foxing to edges of the rear flap only. We invite you to explore our growing collection of signed and inscribed books related to Thoreau. // Wood River = Books specializes in ecology natural history nature writing the environment and environmental literature with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions.

193827436Alberta Canada 1938. Otherwise very good condition. To the missionary who adopted him he was George McLean; in Stoney language he was known as Tatanga Mani; to the world he was Walking Buffalo." Whyte Museum Blogspot 2011.<br /> <br /> Tatanga Mani was a revered figure for the Stoney First Nations people. Born in 1871 he was raised by grandmothers then adopted by Reverend John McLean and given the name George. He was educated in Morley and Winnipeg at times by the infamous Indian residential school system. He became councillor for the Bearspaw Band of the Stoney Indians 1907-12 and chief 1912-16. Walking Buffalo also continued to be a leader in the Morley United Church and became an active member of the Indian Association of Alberta whose major purpose was to maintain Indian treaty rights. In 1958 at age 87 Walking Buffalo decided to work for change in the world through a change in people. Describing his experiences he said "As an Indian I might have had great reason for hatred but now I know that even I can forgive those who have wronged me." Walking Buffalo helped people and leaders both indigenous and non-indigenous to respect and protect Mother Earth. In 1959 he began a world mission travelling to 18 countries Germany Scandinavia Switzerland Cyprus New Zealand Australia South Africa Zimbabwe Kenya Uganda Brazil Japan Canada. "The whole world of mankind needs to change themselves and live God's way of life. No more hatred no more encroaching and no more ignoring of each other." In Australia they were officially welcomed by the Acting Prime Minister in Canberra and the Governor of Western Australia in Perth. paraphrased from albertachampions website<br /> <br /> George Bertrand Mitchell is best remembered for his large body of work focused on the Blackfoot Indian tribe in the Canadian Rockies and Pacific Northwest.
