BOZEMAN - A professor at Montana State University in Bozeman plans to examine how Yellowstone National Park influenced the conservation advocate Aldo Leopold.
A one-year grant will fund the research and writing by Kiki Rydell of the MSU English faculty. Leopold, who died in 1948, is perhaps best known for his book "A Sand County Almanac," acclaimed as a literary landmark in conservation. He worked for the U.S. Forest Service, and taught at the University of Wisconsin.
