- Synopsis
- As an entomologist, Lockwood (natural sciences and humanities, U. of Wyoming) found the explanation of the Rocky Mountain locust's extinction ecologically implausible, and reopened the case, at first for entirely objective reasons and using purely professional methods. But the story was embedded in the history of the US west and entangled with a number of controversies. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
