Textul de pe ultima copertă

Finally, Robert Porter Allen gets the credit he deserves for his tireless work on behalf of the whooping crane. Kathleen Kaska movingly recounts an adventurous life dedicated to the preservation of endangered birds when the odds were overwhelmingly against success a hurricane in the Caribbean, armed unrest in Cuba, an unwelcoming Canadian wilderness. Kaska s narrative reads like an adventure novel! Elizabeth J. Rosenthal, author of "Birdwatcher: The Life of Roger Tory Peterson" Documents the valiant efforts to save the endangered whooping crane from the brink of extinction and tells the story through the life and times of one of its greatest champions. Joe Duff, cofounder, Operation Migration Allen was the leading character in the tremendous struggle to save the whooping crane from extinction. His passion for the species is noteworthy, and is something for all to admire. Tom Stehn, U.S. Whooping Crane Recovery Team"
