“A gold mine of information on the bald eagle. It is well written
and discusses many aspects of the bald eagle's life lacking or
barely mentioned in other works.”—Audubon Naturalist Review
“The facts and historical perspective provided throughout the book
will constantly entertain and amuse the reader. . . . The Bald
Eagle completely recaptured my interest, as I am sure it will
anyone who has an interest in learning more about our national
symbol. If you have a sincere desire to learn about bald eagles,
skip the coffee-table picture books—this is the one for
you.”—Conservationist
“A definitive work on the ecology of the bald eagle. . . . The Bald
Eagle begins with a history of the species as we know it in North
America, through periods of near extinction at the first half of
the century from over-hunting and habitat destruction, its recovery
as environmentalists began to protect it, its brush with extinction
again in the 1950s with DDT, and its recovery once again to the
present.”—Prince Edward Island Evening Patriot
“A delightful, informative, and well-written book.”—Wilson Bulletin
