5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent photography; good info for amateur eagle watchers, June 20, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The American Eagle (Earthsong Collection) (Hardcover)
This book contains excellent photographs of eagles including action shots, still shots, and closeup photos of the birds' features. It includes poetry and Indian lore having to do with eagles, as well as personal notes from zoologists and other eagle enthusiasts. There is an interesting section on the historical significance of the eagle, beginning with Benjamin Franklin's suggestion of the bald eagle as the national symbol and ending with today's efforts to save the eagle from extinction. Those interested in seeing eagles for themselves will find the list of eagle viewing locations helpful; there is also a list of contact information for organizations working to save America's eagles.
