Edward Alphonso Goldman - Mexico, mammal and bird notes, 1897-1898

About the Project

So far, the journals of Edward Goldman that have been uploaded to the Transcription Center have been personal narrative journals of his travel with his mentor, Edward Nelson, in Mexico. This project, however, focuses on one of Goldman's scientific notebooks, where species are catalogued carefully with scientific names and physical descriptions. The earliest pages have lists of family and species names that also appear—maybe a memory aid, maybe a running list of what's been encountered? These lists appear in other journals, too. Dig in with your fellow volunpeers and see if you can determine what their function is!
