Belonging on an Island

 

This natural history takes readers on a thousand-year journey as it explores the Hawaiian Islands' beautiful birds and a variety of topics including extinction, survival, conservationists and their work, and, most significantly, the concept of belonging.Author Daniel Lewis, an award-winning historian and globe-traveling amateur birder, builds this lively text around the stories of four species - the stumbling moa-nalo, the Kaua'i 'o', the palila, and the Japanese white-eye.
