Instead, he wove a heartfelt (although occasionally spilling into maudlin) story consisting of three parts: a biography o...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/62500965">more...</a>]]></body>

Birders are the ultimate list makers and the list is never-ending.  The list becomes an obssession and a race.  It was very comical and an enjoyable read.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book really is more about Koeppel's relationship with his father, and less about birding.  If you're looking for an impressive world-birding travelogue, I recommend Phoebe Snetsinger's <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/search/search?q= Birding on Borrowed Time" title=" Birding on Borrowed Time"> Birding on Borrowed Time</a>.  For a great book about birding, check out Kaufman's <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/search/search?q= Kingbird Highway" title=" Kingbird Highway"> Kingbird Highway</a>.<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1806918">more...</a>]]></body>
