Frontier Naturalist

This audiobook recounts the extraordinary journey of naturalist Jean Louis Berlandier and his team as they explored the northern frontier of Mexico in the 1820s, a region contested by Mexico and the United States. Through Berlandier's detailed field notes, sketches, and paintings, the narrative offers a rare glimpse into a largely unknown landscape filled with diverse flora, fauna, and indigenous peoples. Historian Russell Lawson brings these discoveries to life, providing a vivid account of an expedition that captured a snapshot of a now-extinct American frontier.
