All Things Harmless, Useful, and Ornamental: Environmental Transformation through Species Acclimatization, from Colonial Victoria to the World - Flows, Migrations, and Exchanges
Pete Minard
Colonization depended on moving people, plants, and animals from place to place, and in centuries past, scientists, landowners, and philanthropists formed acclimatization societies to study local species and conditions, form networks of supporters, and exchange organisms across the globe. Pete Minard tells the story of this movement.
