McLean’s crowning achievement was overseeing passage of one > of the country’s first and most important wildlife conservation laws, the > Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918. The MBTA, which is still in effect today, > has saved billions of birds from senseless killing and likely prevented the > extinction of entire bird species. A Connecticut Yankee Goes to Washington: > George P. McLean, Birdman of the Senate puts McLean’s victory for birds in > the context of his distinguished forty-five-year career marked by many acts > of reform during a time of widespread corruption and political instability. > Author Will McLean Greeley traces McLean’s rise from obscurity as a > Connecticut farm boy to national prominence, when he advised five US > presidents and helped lead change and shape events as a US senator from 1911 > to 1929. One reviewer writes: “And there’s a bonus: This book is also a love > song to a distant relative. We need more historians who truly care about the > people they’re writing about, and Greeley does just that.” > > Register for FREE on Zoom > > <https://thoreaufarm.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=69c5fb04745b872be71e74e31&id=6ffbd882cc&e=9c8db05ae1> > > <https://thoreaufarm.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=69c5fb04745b872be71e74e31&id=b1c2f954d2&e=9c8db05ae1> > Make Thoreau Farm part of your story! > Every year, Thoreau Farm welcomes hundreds of people to farmhouse for tours, > presents award-winning authors, and inspires writers, naturalists, and > activists. > We hope you will help us continue to ensure that Thoreau’s birthplace will > continue to serve as a place of pilgrimage, learning, and inspiration for > generations to come. > Click Here to Make a Donation > > <https://thoreaufarm.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=69c5fb04745b872be71e74e31&id=af23175b0f&e=9c8db05ae1> > > <https://thoreaufarm.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=69c5fb04745b872be71e74e31&id=62f9f7a357&e=9c8db05ae1> > > <https://thoreaufarm.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=69c5fb04745b872be71e74e31&id=16a2255f97&e=9c8db05ae1> > > <https://thoreaufarm.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=69c5fb04745b872be71e74e31&id=e9533d8cb5&e=9c8db05ae1> > Copyright © Thoreau Farm, All rights reserved. > > Our mailing address is: Thoreau Faarm, P.O.Box 454, Concord, MA, 01742 > > Want to change how you receive these emails? > You can update your preferences > <https://thoreaufarm.us5.list-manage.com/profile?u=69c5fb04745b872be71e74e31&id=38cac4b18c&e=9c8db05ae1&c=067ca1594a> > or unsubscribe from this list > <https://thoreaufarm.us5.list-manage.com/unsubscribe?u=69c5fb04745b872be71e74e31&id=38cac4b18c&e=9c8db05ae1&c=067ca1594a>. > > www.thoreaufarm.org <http://www.thoreaufarm.org/>
