William Atherton DuPuy was a well-known naturalist who wrote
anecdotally and personally about nature in ANIMAL FRIENDS AND FOES,
INSECT FRIENDS AND FOES, THE NATION'S FORESTS, and PLANT FRIENDS
AND FOES. In another vein he authored GREEN KINGDOM, his account of
the life of a forest ranger, and controversially produced HAWAII
AND ITS RACE PROBLEM. He also wrote for Harper's and had a
connection with the Department of the Interior and, less happily,
with the military's chemical warfare projects.
William Atherton Dupuy managed to combine a career in public
service, playing a role in the Department of the Interior, with the
writing of a number of books distinguished by the care he gave to
selecting artists and orchestrating an unusually close connection
between the illustrations and text. His observations on bird life
remain both entertaining and insightful.
