"A Sand County Almanac," a col- 
lection of essays by the late Aldo 
great W i s c ons in nat- 
ura~s'twiUbe published in October 
by Oxford University Press. Dr. 
Leopold, who was chairman of the 
department of wild life conservation 
at the University of Wisconsin and 
a member of the Wisconsin conser- 
vation commission, was internation- 
ally known for his work. His most 
famous book, "Game Management," 
published in 1982, is still a standard 
text for wild life students. He died 
at 62 of a heart attack Apr. 21, 1948, 
while fighting a brush fire on a 
farm neighboring his summer home 
near Baraboo. His last book will tell 
of his experiences with animals and 
plants at his week end refuge, his 
fight for conservation in Wisconsin 
and nationally, and his philosophy, 
"the extension of ethics from people 
to land."
