Crow Planet: Essential Wisdom from the Urban Wilderness - Lyanda Lynn Haupt

Is it possible to be an urban naturalist? To find out, Lyanda Lynn Haupt turns to crows, the native wildlife which city-dwellers and suburbanites most frequently (if reluctantly) encounter. She relates her findings in the slim, beguiling Crow Planet (Little, Brown, $23.99), a book that inspires and surprises. In graceful prose, Haupt records her own struggle to understand crows and to truly see nature in the city. She also shares delightful asides on motherhood, Benedictine monks, and Seattle yuppies. Most important, Haupt drives home the seriousness of the environmental crisis without succumbing to despair.
