The famous birder in this book was diagnosed with terminal cancer, but, amazingly, lived to list birds for 20 more years. She died a gruesome and shocking death.
Another good book about a birder is Dan Koeppel's To See Every Bird on Earth. Koeppel tells the story of his bird-obsessed father and the effect that kind of obsession can have on a family.
