This is for Jacob Baltuch. Re your request for info on the Canary
Islands from l5th century onwards - have you seen Alfred W. Crosby,
l986, Ecological Imperialism. The Biological Expansion of Europe,
900-l900? Sorry that this is not to your address but I could not get
network to accept your address. E. R. Kintz, SUNY Geneseo, NY

[ The book Ellen cites is one of the titles highly recommended by
Professor John Mohawk (SUNY/Buffalo American Studies Department).
I seem to recall someone offering to get in touch with Prof. Mohawk
a few weeks ago to get his full reading list and to post it as an
article here. If anyone is interested in discussing specific books
on this reading list, once we obtain it, I can set up a separate
mailing list for the purpose. Please send me a message if you would
like to be on such a special-purpose list. Thanks.
