Description: This first-of-its-kind history of starlings in America reveals an oddball, love-hate story at the intersection of human folly, ornithology, and one bird's tenacious will to endure in hostile territory.
Review Quotes: "Starlings is a smart, entertaining parable about human foolishness, avian ingenuity, and the unintended consequences of ecological meddling. With wit and verve, Mike Stark tells the epic story of the plucky starling--a bird that enchanted Mozart, exasperated farmers, and ultimately conquered America."--Ben Goldfarb, author of Crossings and Eager
