At the start of the 19th century, John James Audubon embarked upon an epic ornithological quest across America with nothing but his artist's materials, an assistant and a gun. Driving him on through terrible storms, encounters with ferocious bears and dangerous people, Audubon's all-consuming passion for birds came to define his entire life - but what would the world make of his expressive and distinctly unscientific illustrations upon return?

Enjoyable submitted by bcartm01 on June 17, 2022, 10:53pm The illustrations are really beautiful. I picked this up on a whim and ended up really enjoying learning about Audubon. He led a fascinating life and I have a new appreciation for the modern day Audubon Society and bird counts.
