I started at the beginning and I read to the end without stopping and that, for me at least, is a rarity. But then Mark Avery is a rarity too as he has few, if any, equals in contemporary British conservation.
A new way of seeing, regarding, understanding and enjoying birds. I guarantee that you will learn masses from this book, lots of remarkable gems that will increase your appreciation of bird life. Top blokes, top birds, top book!
Once in a while a read comes along which transcends all expectations and Elisabeth Tova Bailey’s ‘The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating’ was just such a book for me.
