A Whooping Crane Diary

Paperback

Price: $14.00

Overview

Poetry. Diary. Environmental Studies. Jeff Ross is a volunteer with the International Crane Foundation, a conservation organization committed to preserving the fifteen different crane species and their habitats. In this unique book, Ross intersperses first-person journal entries on one trip to care for the endangered whooping crane, with classical Chinese verse, photographs and his own poems on his interactions with the bird. Thrilling, rich, and penetrating, Ross’s poems carry the loft of the very cranes, the tragedy of their rarity, and the hope of recovery in our time. I don’t know another book that so successfully blends the ethereal beauty and sweaty practice of conservation. … I recommend A WHOOPING CRANE DIARY with all my heart – Robert Michael Pyle.
