A Little Natural History

Edward M. Barrows

Edward M. Barrows, Professor of Biology at Georgetown, gave a Walking Tour of Georgetown University’s Outdoor Campus and Gardens to Georgetown alumni and Library Associates over Reunion Weekend in June. Author of the book Nature, Gardens, & Georgetown, Professor Barrows gave some valuable insights into the local flora and fauna. His book reveals much natural history of the University and the surrounding area, including the fate of local trees during the Civil War, the history of the College Walks, the many memorial gardens, and the birds, insects and other wildlife most likely to be seen on a stroll through campus.
