Review Quotes:
Gessner's Return of the Osprey soars with detail and a sense of wonder. By the end of the book, you feel as if you've been out there with Gessner much of the time, shivering in the woods, mucking through the marsh, kayaking upriver to an isolated nest site. It's strangely satisfying, imparting a sense of the profound. And you don't even have to venture outdoors to experience it.
