Reviews

This is a wide-ranging and readable treatment of the peregrine's decline and rebound in North America from crash to near-recovery... In fact, Enderson was one of the main players, and this goes a long way toward giving the book credibility. Lloyd F. Kiff, Science Director, the Peregrine Fund


This book belongs next to Cade and Burnham's Return of the Peregrine in any library intent on chronicling what is probably the greatest conservation story of the 20th century. -- Roland C. Clement The Auk A well written, accessible, and ultimately uplifting tale of survival. Southeastern Naturalist
