This biography of Robert Ridgway describes how the study of the natural sciences after Charles Darwin dramatically changed. The role of authority, language and publication all changed. At the zenith of the study of natural history sat Robert Ridgway, the Smithsonian's first Curator of Birds. Now largely forgotten, Ridgway was one of America's most famous scientists.
