de Max C Thompson, Charles A Ely (Ed. University Press of Kansas) Isbn : 089338027X
11.91 € / 78.12 FF
Kansas knows how to attract birds. Located in the very center of the North American continent, it straddles the Central Flyway, one of the primary migration«highways»between Canada and South America.

The number of bird species recorded in the states is 424--a total that places Kansas among the top five birding states in the country. Volume I of Birds in Kansas, th...

9.52 € / 62.45 FF
John James Audubon's love of the backwoods and his passion for drawing led him to become America's foremost artist-naturalist. His major work, The Birds of America, is as stunning today as it was more than 100 years ago. This book in the Icon Series uses Audubon's illustrations and paintings, together with other visual material and text, to document the life and achievements of one of America's most influential illustrators and de facto environmentalists.

Audubon plied flat boats down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, hunted with the Shawnee, and spent much of his time as a woodsman. Wherever he went he felt compelled to sketch and paint the natural wealth and beauty of his beloved America. Plagued by bad luck, ...
