I've been told by someone who would have been in a position to have heard it second or third hand that chicken à la king is named for Clarence King... can anyone confirm or dispute this? Ethan 21:40, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Need to add information on the rest of King career especially on the number of business ventures. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wysoka60 (talkcontribs) 07:14, November 3, 2006 (UTC)


There is a great book recently written by Robert Wilson called "The Explorer King" published by Scribner. I believe it can be found on Amazon.com. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 129.33.119.12 (talkcontribs) 12:03, November 3, 2006 (UTC)

I'm holding a copy of it right now. I'll be contributing within a few weeks. --Artevelde 13:01, 5 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Review comments

Some suggestions for improvement as the article is expanded:

  • Template:Infobox Scientist should be added
  • Lead needs expanding to cover all aspects of the subject's life and research
  • Article should be divided into appropriate subheadings
  • Information on work should be expanded
  • References should be expanded and preferably converted to inline format
  • External links present which could be used to expand article
