Includes the best of Henry David Thoreau's unparalleled descriptions of birds, from the red-tailed hawk to the Blackburnian warbler. Unlike previous quote collections, the observations here are arranged by the day of the year, emphasizing the relationship of birds with their environment and the spiritual significance of the seasons. With 150 watercolors and field sketches by renowned bird artist Barry Van Dusen and a foreword by celebrated naturalist Peter Alden, this book showcases Thoreau's writings on birds in a way we have never seen before. TITLE PAGE HAS BEEN SIGNED by at least one of the three contemporary contributors.
