"This story is told so naturally that I felt I was in the presence of a mind that is completely original." --Tracy Kidder Now revered as one of North America's top birders, Kenn Kaufman hit the road at age sixteen and spent a year crisscrossing the country to see as many birds as he could, in a birding competition known as a Big Year. In what has become a classic among birders, this memoir chronicles the subculture of birding in the 1970s and a young man?s search for his place in the world, complete with wild adventures and some quirky characters.
