What readers think of Better Living Through Birding, plus links to write your own review.

Christian Cooper's memoir "Better Living Through Birding" delves into the author's personal journey as well as the joys of bird-watching. The novel begins with a memorable occurrence on Memorial Day 2020, when Cooper requested a dog walker to harness her dog while bird-watching in Central Park. This encounter evolved into a racial altercation, which was videotaped and went viral. Cooper will use this event to reflect on his life and his passion for birding.

Cooper transports readers to his late 1960s boyhood on Long Island, where he was a nerdy youngster who found birding through nature walks with his father and family camping trips. He describes how he would read birding guides to surprise his friends.
