It took me a while to wrap my mind around the concept of Birds and People , Mark Cocker and David Tipling’s book that, in 592 pages, explores the intersection of just that—birds and us.

If you take only one thing away from this review, let it be this: Do not be intimidated by this book! Even with all this to draw on, the book still could have been a slog with its minute daily accounts of islands visited, blackflies endured, and Fox Sparrows shot were it not for Logan’s native talents.
