—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
