Book DescriptionLook out the window See a bird Enjoy it CONGRATULATIONS! You are now a bad birdwatcher Inthis refreshingly irreverent introduction to the subject, Simon Barnes makes birdwatching simple—and above all, enjoyable Anyone who has ever looked up at the sky or gazed out the window knows a thing or two about birds Who doesn’t know одокь the brisk purpose of a sparrow, the airy insouciance of the seagull, the dramatic power of the hawk? Birds are beautiful, you can encounter them anywhere, and they embody one of the primal human aspirations: flight Birdwatching starts, simply, with a habit of looking You let birds into your life a little at a time You remember bird names as you would the names of people you’ve enjoyed meeting And if you share your looking and listening with other people, so much the better Birdwatching might even help you get along with the father who never approved of anything you did—as it did for Barnes As Barnes shares his relaxed principles of birdwatching, he also shows us the power of place: the elation of spotting kingfishers in Kashmir, hawks over the Great Lakes, or the birds closest to home And he shows how, no matter where you live, birds can connect you to the greater glory of life Funny, enthusiastic, and inspiring, How to Be a Bad Birdwatcher demonstrates why you don’t have to have fancy binoculars or lifetime checklists to discover a new world So, begin the habit oflooking See that bird Enjoy it!.  2005 г 240 стр ISBN 0375423559.

Book DescriptionFrom the Pulitzer Prize—winning historian Richard Rhodes, the first major biography of John James Audubon in forty years, and the first to illuminate fully the private and family life of the master illustrator of the natural world Rhodes shows us young Audubon arriving in New York from France in 1803, his illegitimacy a painful одолд secret, speaking no English but already drawing and observing birds We see him falling in love, marrying the wellborn English girl next door, crossing the Appalachians to frontier Kentucky to start a new life, fashioning himself into an American just as his adopted country was finding its identity Here is Audubon exploring the wilderness of birds–pelicans wading the shallows of interior rivers, songbirds flocking, passenger pigeons darkening the skies–and teaching himself to revivify them in glorious life-size images Now he finds his calling: to take his hundreds of watercolor drawings to England to be engraved in a great multivolume work called The Birds of America Within weeks of his arrival there in 1826, he achieves remarkable celebrity as “the American Woodsman ” He publishes his major work as well as five volumes of bird biographies enhanced by his authentic descriptions of pioneer American life Audubon’s story is an artist’s story but also a moving love story In his day, communications by letter across the ocean were so slow and uncertain that John James and his wife, Lucy, almost lost each other in the three years when the Atlantic separated them–until he crossed the Atlantic and half the American continent to claim her Their letters during this time are intimate, moving, and painful, and they attest to an enduring love We examine Audubon’s legacy of inspired observation–the sonorities of a wilderness now lost, the brash life of a new nation just inventing itself–precisely, truthfully, lyrically captured And we see Audubon in the fullness of his years, made rich by his magnificent work, winning public honor: embraced by writers and scientists, fêted by presidents and royalty Here is a revelation of Audubon as the major American artist he is And here he emerges for the first time in his full humanity–handsome, charming, volatile, ambitious, loving, canny, immensely energetic Richard Rhodes has given us an indispensable portrait of a true American icon.  2004 г 528 стр ISBN 0375414126.

Review: By reviewing this file, the author explains Rasputin very effectively Through the book you will discover how his religion excused his controversial behaviour and who really murdered Rasputin, arguably causing the fall of the Tsar's You may also learn how a primitive version of the Atkins diet nearly foiled Rasputins murderers! In addition одопл to all this, the book also shows how strange the Russian imperial court was (e g Rasputin's suspected murderer, Prince Yusupov, was a known transvestite) It also teaches a lot about the relationships in the Romanov dynasty before its fall in 1917 and hrotten the structure was Annoyingly, the book does not provide much of a conclusion to Rasputin and is written more in the way of a book of sources rather than a subjective analysis It would be nice to have a summary opinion from the author who in the end leaves a load of untied threads Despite this, it is a great book and anyone wanting to know Rasputin better or even write a book on him should read this as it is a thorough and enjoyable account.  2001 г Мягкая обложка, 576 стр ISBN 0385489102.
