Near Fine. Signed and Inscibed By The Author. 6" X 9, " 148 pages. These collected essays, originally written for fellow subscribers of a birders listserve, are reports from the field spanning eight years, from 2002 to 2010. Illustrated with Neal's crisp photographs, these dispatches are not just an enumeration of Henslow's Sparrows and Greater Prairie-Chickens. Neal paints a rich landscape of plants, animals, and human history, including the struggle of a community to balance booming developement and environmental stewardship. Neal's journeys take him to Civil War battlefields, restored grasslands, pasturelands, tallgrass prairie, and cypress swamps where the ivory-billed Woodpecter waits in the shadows. Through insightful writing and richly detailed photographs, The Birdside Baptist presents a birder's-eye view of northwest Arkansas as an interconnected economic, social, and natural community. Bottom front corner bent. One small crease on bottom of front cover.
