"They were men of firm courage and stern resolution, those trappers of the early days," and Jack Danvers who spends a summer in the Colorado park region, is taught some of the secrets of that now forgotten life by one who had borne a part in the work of subduing the wild West. He learns much of Indian beaver lore of methods of trapping and of camp life in general.
George Bird Grinnell (September 20, 1849 – April 11, 1938) was an American anthropologist, historian, naturalist, and writer. Grinnell was born in Brooklyn, New York, and graduated from Yale University with a B.A. in 1870 and a Ph.D. in 1880. Originally specializing in zoology, he became a prominent early conservationist and student of Native American life. Grinnell has been recognized for his influence on public opinion and work on legislation to preserve the American bison. Mount Grinnell is named after Grinnell.
