Golden Eagle: Sovereign of the Skies
$29.95
Golden Eagle: Sovereign of the Skies is more than a non-fiction information book on golden eagles; it is also a work of art. From the first sentence of the book's prologue, Dr. Preston's descriptive way of writing captivated my interest. Describing a co-worker as having an "elfish grin", or the sky behind him as taking on the "glow akin to a distant, raging wildfire," added a special touch that painted images and sounds in my mind. Dr. Preston begins each chapter with an experience from his past, allowing the reader a small glimpse into who he is, and why he became the person he is today. These create a more personal feeling to the book that one does not usually receive when reading this type of nonfiction book. This is a wonderful, entertaining way to setup the background for the subject to be covered in each chapter. Along with information about the bird's origin, hunting methods, prey, reproduction, and winter habits, the last two chapters also cover two other interesting, and important aspects of the subject. These last chapters discuss the cultural influences the golden eagle has had on humanity, and the dangers our ever-expanding society has on the survival of the eagle. Gary Leppart's beautiful photographs further enhance the book. I highly recommend this book to any bird lover, even if you have some knowledge about golden eagles.
