The Bird Man: The Extraordinary Story of John Gould
By Isabella Tree
Ebury Press, 246pp, $49.95
"Since the first state branch of the Gould League of Bird Lovers was formed
in NSW almost a century ago to protect Australia's feathered friends, it has
attracted more than a million members. One hesitates to imagine what they
would make of this irreverent biography of the celebrated English
ornithologist, author and publisher in whose honour the organisation was
named."

It sounds an amazing story!
Karen.
