Summary: A compelling story of the saving of the Eagle
Comment: I found this book to be, much to my surprise, a very good
read. Examples: The story of the college professor hoarding
illegal poisons to sell to ranchers which are then used to
kill eagles and coyotes; the retired man who learned to climb
100 ft trees to band eaglets; the Indians who kill, buy and
sell eagles and eagle parts for profit; the western ranchers
who live off government subsidies but who feel free to kill
eagles as pests.
There are many heros and bad guys in this book, including
undercover agents risking their lives to catch the bad guys.
But the good guys are winning and the eagles are going
to make it back. A very good and readable book.
