author
Best known as a naturalist and co-author of a detailed study of the Sacramento Mountains salamander, this writer is associated with a small but lasting corner of scientific literature. Surviving records are sparse, which gives the work an extra sense of discovery.

by Richard F. Johnston, G. A. Schad
Available catalog records link G. A. Schad to Natural History of the Salamander, Aneides hardii, a scientific study written with Richard F. Johnston and preserved through Project Gutenberg and The Online Books Page.
The book focuses on the Sacramento Mountains salamander in New Mexico and reflects a careful, field-based approach to natural history writing. Because reliable biographical information about G. A. Schad is limited in the sources available here, it is safest to remember the author through this specialized contribution rather than through a fuller life story.
