EASTERN NATURALIST IN THE WEST:DALLAS LORE SHARP 1912 is an edited, enlarged reprint of an important 1914 book, WHERE ROLLS THE OREGON by Dallas Lore Sharp. During the period between 1895-1920, Dallas Lore Sharp was an extremely successful author of books on natural history subjects in North America. Aside from his books, he wrote hundreds of magazine articles for many of the popular publications of the era. 
In the summer of 1912, Sharp traveled from his home in Boston to join William L. Finley in Oregon. William Finley was also a noted writer, but was better known for his wildlife photography. During that summer Finley took Sharp over a wide area in Oregon. Most of the locations they visited were areas in which Finley had done most of the photography work which made him famous. 
Sharp and Finley made the dangerous climb to the sea bird colonies on Three Arch Rocks off the Oregon coast, crossed the high desert to famed Malheur marsh, rode horses into the Wallowa Mountains looking for the few remaining bighorn sheep, tried to bring a load of trout across the high desert to stock streams, and climbed Mt. Hood, all within that summer. 
Dallas Lore Sharp was a keen naturalist and among the most popular nature writers of his time. Anyone with an interest in our natural history, and especially birds, will surely enjoy EASTERN NATURALIST IN THE WEST: DALLAS LORE SHARP 1912.
