The Mockingbird (Corrie Herring Hooks Series)

"Few birdlovers could resist this elegant volume." ?Publishers Weekly "This is a book which might be best placed into its own category of being an 'everything you wanted to know' about the Northern Mockingbird Mimus polyglottos, but never knew enough to ask. . . . Included in the book is not only the usual kind of information on life history and distribution, but also information on its relationship with man?as cage bird, artistic influence, folklore and myth and as a sort of 'Everyman's hero.' All in all, a unique tribute to an interesting bird." ?Ibis "A beautifully designed book, filled with color photographs and illustrations paying tribute to the state bird of Texas?as well as Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi and Tennessee. . . . There's a great deal of information in this slim volume, and its attractive packaging would make it a fine gift for any birder." ?San Antonio Express-News Since its first publication in 1988, The Mockingbird has become the bird watchers' favorite for information on one of America's most beloved songbirds.
