Chronicles the founding of Hawk Mountain Sanctuary, the world's first refuge for birds of prey. This personal account by the Sanctuary's first curator shares the difficulties and discoveries he and his wife encountered during their first years on the mountain. Published in coordination with the Hawk Mountain Sanctuary Association. "For years many of us have hoped that Maurice Broun would put this story, as well as some of his knowledge of hawks, between covers...Like the drama of the egrets, it is one of the great heart-warming stories of bird conservation." - Roger Tory Peterson
