Why it's in the Cabin
A book that is as much about the peregrine falcons, protagonists in Baker's text, as is about the act of watching, and its relationship with devotion, love, and poetry.

Author
J.A. Baker
He dedicated his life to watching birds, and wrote what is thought to be one of the most important non-fiction books of the 20th century. We are interested in his sensibility, and the quiet humility required to lead a life of observing nature, and then in turn, observing yourself and how it has changed you.
