Glide (1973-1974)
Manuscripts
This collection is organized to preserve, whenever possible, Robert Hine's original order. This includes most of his original folder titles, the original order of folders, and the original order of some of the boxes. The collection contains Hine's professional work as a historian of the American West and a writer, and includes research notes, photocopied manuscripts, newspaper clippings, interviews, correspondence, and other research related papers. As such, the original order of Hine's papers reflects his process of collecting and referencing them as he worked on various book projects. In some instances, his original folders provide insight into the kinds of questions or themes he was pursuing in the course of his work. Hine also revised the organization of these papers as he prepared them for donation to the Huntington Library in the late 1990s. Despite Hine's own curatorship, some of his papers remained unsorted and unorganized at the time of this collection's cataloging. Those have been organized by the cataloger to reflect, as much as possible, Hine's own organizational methods.

The birds and the beasts were there
Rare Books
"This highly personal narrative conveys the excitement and sense of discovery which comes to bird watchers and other nature lovers as they learn to look at the world with more informed eyes. The book itself is a source of carefully researched information about birds--their appearances and habits, the foods preferred by various species, the plants and habitat that will attract them. Her final chapter is an eyewitness account of the great Coyote Fire, a man-caused forest fire which came near to destroying the canyon, and the whole city, and of how the charred forest and its creatures resumed their lives after the fire. Beneath the warm, engaging surface of Mrs. Millar's story is a deeply affirmative answer to a question of great importance: how can human beings learn to live with nature, and what will happen to us if we can't"--Dust jacket.
