    CAMP CHIRICAHUA JULY 13-25, 2021 © 2020 Red-faced Warbler © Michael O’Brien Camp Chiricahua, co-sponsored by Black Swamp Bird Observatory (Ohio), the American Birding Association, and Leica Sport Optics, offers young naturalists between the ages of 14 and 18 the opportunity to explore the biologically rich ecosystems of Southeast Arizona, centering on the famed Chiricahua Mountains. The primary focus is on the birdlife of the Chiricahuas (pronounced Cheer-ick-ow-wahs) and other important sites in Southeast Arizona, but we will take time to observe all facets of nature and emphasize patient field observation, note taking, and learning bird sounds. The camp is set in a productive learning environment in which participants are educated on ecology, habitats, and ecosystems, and on increasing observation skills. Daily activities are based on thorough exploration of each of the distinct regions we visit. Hikes, field trips, and discussions will complement free time, during which campers will have the luxury of exploring their natural surroundings in small groups. Camp Chiricahua, Page 2 Starting in Tucson, we will first do some desert birding on the east side of town before ascending Mount Lemmon in the Catalina Mountains. Two nights of camping in the forested highlands will acquaint us with the “sky islands” so very characteristic of the borderlands of Southeast Arizona. Cave Creek Ranch © Michael O’Brien Much of our time is spent in the Chiricahuas, an 80-mile long mountain range rising out of the Chihuahuan Desert to nearly 10,000 feet, and encompassing five distinct life zones. Long famous amongst naturalists for its biological diversity and rich assortment of “Mexican” type birds that inhabit these mountains, the Chiricahuas are also a place of considerable scenic grandeur.

FRONTIER IDENTITY IN CULTURAL EVENTS IN HOLMES COUNTY, FLORIDA A Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of requirements For the degree of Master of Arts In the Department of Southern Studies The University of Mississippi by TYLER D. KEITH May 2011 Copyright Tyler D. Keith 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Holmes County, Florida plays host to several cultural events that perpetuate a frontier identity for its citizens. These events include the dedication of a homesteading cabin, which serves as the meeting place for other ―pioneer days‖ events; ―Drums along the Choctawhatchee‖, an event put on by a local Creek Indian tribe that celebrates the collaborative nature of pioneer and Native Americans; the 66th annual North West Florida Championship Rodeo; and a local fish-fry. Each of these events celebrates the frontier identity of the county in unique and important ways. Using the images of the frontier created by William ―Buffalo Bill‖ Cody‘s Wild West show and the ideas championed by Fredrick Jackson Turner in his famous essay ―The Importance of the Frontier in American History‖ as models, Holmes County constructs its own frontier image through the celebration of these combined cultural events.

  • THE WALTER STANLEY CAMPBELL COLLECTION Inventory and Index
    THE WALTER STANLEY CAMPBELL COLLECTION Inventory and Index Revised and edited by Kristina L. Southwell Associates of the Western History Collections Norman, Oklahoma 2001 Boxes 104 through 121 of this collection are available online at the University of Oklahoma Libraries website. THE COVER Michelle Corona-Allen of the University of Oklahoma Communication Services designed the cover of this book. The three photographs feature images closely associated with Walter Stanley Campbell and his research on Native American history and culture. From left to right, the first photograph shows a ledger drawing by Sioux chief White Bull that depicts him capturing two horses from a camp in 1876. The second image is of Walter Stanley Campbell talking with White Bull in the early 1930s. Campbell’s oral interviews of prominent Indians during 1928-1932 formed the basis of some of his most respected books on Indian history. The third photograph is of another White Bull ledger drawing in which he is shown taking horses from General Terry’s advancing column at the Little Big Horn River, Montana, 1876. Of this act, White Bull stated, “This made my name known, taken from those coming below, soldiers and Crows were camped there.” Available from University of Oklahoma Western History Collections 630 Parrington Oval, Room 452 Norman, Oklahoma 73019 No state-appropriated funds were used to publish this guide.

  • Frederick Jackson Turner and Buffalo Bill Richard White
    Frederick Jackson Turner and Buffalo Bill Richard White Americans have never had much use for history, but we do like anniversaries. In 1893 Frederick Jackson Turner, who would become the most eminent historian of his generation, was in Chicago to deliver an academic paper at the historical congress convened in conjunction with the Columbian Exposition. The occasion for the exposition was a slightly belated celebration of the four hundredth anniversary of Columbus's arrival in the Western Hemisphere. The paper Turner presented was "The Significance of the Frontier in American History." 1 Although public anniversaries often have educational pretensions, they are primarily popular entertainments; it is the combination of the popular and the educational that makes the figurative meeting of Buffalo Bill and Turner at the Columbian Exposition so suggestive. Chicago celebrated its own progress from frontier beginnings. While Turner gave his academic talk on the frontier, Buffalo Bill played, twice a day, "every day, rain or shine," at "63rd St—Opposite the World's Fair," before a covered grandstand that could hold eighteen thousand people.2 Turner was an educator, an academic, but he had also achieved great popular success because of his mastery of popular frontier iconography. Buffalo Bill was a showman (though he never referred to his Wild West as a show) with educational pretensions. Characteristically, his program in 1893 bore the title Buffalo Bill's Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders of the World (Figure 1).3 In one of the numerous endorsements reproduced in the program, a well-known midwestern journalist, Brick Pomeroy, proclaimed the exhibition a ''Wild West Reality .
