Life with birds
Written by Malcolm Smith - Published by Whittles
Humans and birds have had, in many places, an interdependent history for millenia - From domesticated fowl, hunting targets, clothing and decoration to more unusual events such as Parsi funerals, military purposes, companionship and religious ceremonies. This book tells the history of humans history with birds, and also how we have been responsible for the extinction of so many species - The Passenger pigeon being one of the most notable, being reduced from possibly the world's most numerous bird to extinction in no time at all.
