How many birds sing through the plays of Shakespeare, and did the poet know them well? Archibald Geikie, a geologist with a love of literature, hunts every lark, owl, and nightingale in the works and weighs the naturalist behind the playwright. A charming meeting of poetry and natural history. Reread Shakespeare with an ear tuned to his birds.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
