Aspens on the Ridge
by
Leon E. Pavlick & Ann M. Pavlick
Similar to the genre of Red Pines and Foxes, Aspens on the Ridge describes natural history of the North American plains and prairies from the ice age to the present.
Leon E. Pavlick (1939 – 2003) was Curator of Botany at the Royal
British Columbia Museum for almost two decades. He was an
internationally recognized plant and tree expert. He graduated
from the University of Victoria, British Columbia with a Bachelor
of Science (Honours Botany) degree, and followed that with a
Master of Science, Botany (Honours) degree from Washington
State University. Leon was recognized for his work by the governments
of British Columbia, Canada and the United States.
Leon was humbled when invited to join the Sigma Xi Society,
the international, multidisciplinary research society which
honours scientific achievement. He was included in the American
Biographical Institute 2004 edition of “Great Minds of the
21st Century” and received the International Cultural Diploma
of Honour.
