Wall Street And The Wilds is a book written by A. W. Dimock that explores the intersection of finance and nature in the early 20th century. The book is a collection of essays and articles originally published in magazines such as The Saturday Evening Post and Harper's Weekly. The essays cover a range of topics, from the role of Wall Street in financing the development of the American West to the impact of industrialization on the natural world. Dimock also delves into the lives of some of the key figures of the time, including John D. Rockefeller and Theodore Roosevelt, and their influence on the relationship between business and the environment.Throughout the book, Dimock presents a nuanced view of the relationship between capitalism and conservation, arguing that while Wall Street and the natural world may seem at odds, they are in fact deeply intertwined. He also offers insights into the challenges facing conservationists in the early 20th century and the ways in which they sought to balance economic growth with environmental protection.Overall, Wall Street And The Wilds is a thought-provoking and informative read that sheds light on an important chapter in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
