Roger Tory Peterson - the Renaissance man who taught Americans the joy of watching birds - also invented the modern field guide. His 1934 landmark Field guide to the birds was the first bird identification guide designed to be used in the field by the average person. This work presents a portrait of this hero of the conservation movement.
