by Jonathan Rosen
Life of the Skies is not your typical book about birds or birding. Rosen, a novelist and editorial director of Nextbook, a Jewish culture and literature website, has written a book that is more an extended essay on our physical and emotional connection to birds than it is a book on the history of birds or the people who watch them. Interjecting personal stories with avian history, poetry, and ecology, Life of the Skies is a great book for anyone with an interest in birds.

I loved this book. The author really captured some of the ineffable lure of birding.
