Description

Eagles, more than any other bird, encapsulate the majesty of Scotland. But change is afoot: golden eagles now share the sky with sea eagles after a successful reintroduction. In this intimate portrait of the birds' lives, the author combines passion, writing talent and 25 years of experience to explore the big question - what now for the eagles?

"The Eagle's Way, is surely one of modern natural history writing's masterpieces." - Jim Perrin, The Great Outdoors. "Crumley is quite exceptional. Jim's writing is absolutely authentic; his arguments vested with the power of heartfelt sincerity; his life devoted to the vital subjects he studies, expresses so finely, and opens up to our wider understanding in the context of a better and more humane planetary future." - Viewpoint. "Jim Crumley soars with eagles and we watch with our mouths open, not just because the presence of the eagle fills us with awe but the virtuoso writing does, too. All Jim Crumley's books come from an intelligence drawn from place." - Paul Evan, BBC Countryfile. "Tinglingly readable - Crumley's distinctive voice carries you with him on his dawn forays and sunset vigils." - John Lister Kaye. "Crumley's books are sublime. 'The Eagle's Way' is a beautiful, funny, argumentative narrative of praise to the eagle." - Roger Hutchinson, West Highland Free Press. "Crumley conveys the feelings involved - the excitement, the joy, the wonder of the natural world at its wildest - with honesty and passion" - Susan Mansfield, Scottish Review of Books. Praise for Jim Crumley: "the pre-eminent Scottish nature-writer" - The Guardian. "The most gifted writer where nature writing and mountain writing meet" - Jim Perrin for The Great Outdoors. "The best nature writer working in Britain today." - The Los Angeles Times. "Enthralling and often strident." - The Observer. "Tinglingly readable ... Crumley's distinctive voice carries you with him on his dawn forays and sunset vigils." - Sir John Lister-Kaye, The Herald. "Nature writing with passion, honesty, even poetry" - Scottish Review of Books. "Virtuoso writing" - BBC Countryfile.
