Synopsis
The author of Eve's Apple and an avid bird-watcher looks at America's fascination with birding and the diverse roles of birds--historical, literary, scientific, and spiritual--in a culture caught in the middle of its desire to both conquer and conserve, as he studies the meaning of a hobby born out of a simultaneous industrialization and longing for the natural world. Reprint. 25,000 first printing.
