The Rocky Mountain Goat is a book written by Madison Grant and published in 1905. The book is a detailed account of the natural history and behavior of the Rocky Mountain goat, a species of goat found in the western regions of North America. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the Rocky Mountain goat’s life. The first chapter provides an introduction to the species, including its physical characteristics, habitat, and distribution. Subsequent chapters cover topics such as the goat’s diet, reproduction, behavior, and interactions with other animals.Throughout the book, Grant draws on his extensive field experience and scientific research to provide a comprehensive and engaging portrait of this fascinating animal. He also includes numerous illustrations and photographs to help readers visualize the goat’s appearance and behavior.In addition to its scientific content, The Rocky Mountain Goat also offers a glimpse into the culture and history of the western United States during the early 20th century. Grant’s writing reflects the attitudes and values of his time, and his descriptions of the goat’s habitat and interactions with humans provide insight into the changing relationship between people and nature in the American West.Overall, The Rocky Mountain Goat is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the natural history of North America, as well as those interested in the cultural and historical context of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
