From the Back Cover
"Marvelous. I loved just about everything about this book."
—Simon Winchester, author of The Professor and the Madman
"A lovingly told story . . . helps you understand what moves humans to seek escape in seemingly strange other worlds."
—Stefan Fatsis, author of Word Freak
"Everyone has his or her addiction, and birdwatching is the drug of choice for the father of author Dan Koeppel, who writes affectionately but honestly about his father’s obsession."
—Audubon Magazine (editor’s choice)
"As a glimpse into human behavior and family relationships, To See Every Bird on Earth is a rarity: a book about birding that nonbirders will find just as rewarding."
—Chicago Tribune

Octavo,278 pp.inscription, fine copy in dustwrapper. This title explores the thrill of the chase and the quest to see every bird on Earth, at the expense of all else. To travel to places exotic, dangerous and commonplace, It's also the story of obsession and how it defines us. There are nearly 10,000 known species of bird on the planet and Richard Koeppel, the author's father, has seen over 7,000 of them. But what drives a man to travel to sixty countries and spend a fortune to count birds?. Seller Inventory # 24373
