A just-released book, "The Birding Life: A Passion for Birds at Home and Afield" (Clarkson Potter, $50), is notable not only for the glimpses into the homes and lives of noted U.S. birders, but also for something else!
Co-author Carol Sheehan penned the hybrid design/birding book with Laurence Sheehan and Kathryn George Precort. Sheehan was the editor in chief during Ki's Country Home magazine years, but that's not all! Flea Market Style's art director and writer, Stacey Willey and Christine Hofmann-Bourque, worked with her, too!
So we tip our collective hat to Sheehan, a fine, non-feathered friend to FMS! And we congratulate her on this latest achievement! If that lovely cover, a pastiche of vintage bird images (some look like the old baking soda collectible cards!), is any indication, there is a lot of lovely content -- photographs are by veteran shooter William Stites -- inside to appeal to those who love all things avian!
FMS wishes her well as sales, holiday and otherwise, begin to take flight!
