{"product_id":"9781645022954","title":"Feathered Forest : Aloft with Birds in Ancient Trees - David George Haskell","description":"\"Luminous.\"-Bill McKibben, author of Here Comes the SunAcclaimed nature writer Marina Richie guides us into a vertical world of old-growth forests through the eyes of the birds that inhabit them-exploring her journey as an environmentalist in her signature verdant prose. With exquisite prose and meticulous research, Marina Richie interweaves memoir with clear-eyed notes on ecology to create an engaging blend of scientific and soulful observations. In Feathered Forest, birds are our guides to a vertical world of ancient trees that spans both sides of the Cascade Mountains. Within centuries-old groves that are critical refugia in a time of climate crisis, these winged messengers show us a better way to steward our threatened landscapes. Just as a forest transitions upward from understory to midstory to overstory, so too does the trajectory of Richie's life-from the protective cover of adolescence to the precarious yet light-filled canopy of adulthood. Richie's love for the wilds unfurls in poetic phrasing, and her call to protect our last old-growth trees is resounding and clear. A narrative of perception change, memoir, and kinship, Feathered Forest is a soaring ode to birds and wild trees. \"A lyrical new book . . .the author spins a story web out of ecology, bird behavior, discussions with forest and bird researchers, and her own observations . . .All make this perfect for sampling chapter by chapter and learning about connections we never considered before.\"-Booklist","brand":"David George Haskell","offers":[{"title":"240 pages \/ 08\/09\/2026 \/ Biography: general","offer_id":57459208552823,"sku":"9781645022954","price":22.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9781645022954.jpg?v=1789549447","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9781645022954","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
