Nature Notes of Roosevelt

Of all Theodore Roosevelt's many books, those
devoted to natural history and observations of
animals birds and fishes will, with the possible
exception of The Winning Of the West" and
The Naval War of 1872, most tenacously hold
their place in American literature. These nature
notes.-the product of the holiday time Of an ex-
traordnarily busy career-have charm of style
which Mr. Roosevelts writings reveal nowhere
else in so rich measure; and give evidence of
that warm and intimate love for wild life that
one finds in the writings of Audubon, ThOreau
and John Burroughs.
Roosevelt's soul was saturated with the beau
ties of nature Whenever he wrote of birds and
their songs, lyrical quality crept into his prose
that revealed the poet naturalist at his best. In
the early chapters of THE Wilderness Hunter
there are many exquisite bits of descriptive writ
ing in which the Colonel reveals a knowledge of
bird life that is little short of extraordinary when
one stops to consider the many branching activi-
ties of his crowded life.
So much the naturalist was Roosevelt that one
constantly finds him leaving the main trail Of his
bunting narratives to plunge rapturousy into
descriptions of the meadow lark's song and the
magic charm Of the mocking bird, that glorious
American rival of the nightingale. For instance,
in "The Wilderness Hunter" after describing
how he had killed a prong-horn buck, Roosevelt
pays this glowing tribute to the meadow lark S
achievement as a singer:
Its song has length, variety, power and rich
melody, and there is in it sometimes a cadence
of wild Sadness ineXpressibly touching. Yet
cannot say that either song would appeal to
others it appeals to me; for to me it comes for
ever laden with hundred memories and asso-
cations with the sight of dim hills reddening in
the dawn. with the breath of cool morning winds
blowing across lonely plains, with the scent of
flowers on the sunlit PRAIRIE with the motion of
fiery horses, with all the strong thrill of eager
and buOvant life"
