An interesting review, by David Gessner, appeared in the summer 2008 issue of OnEarth Magazine, an independent publication of the National Resources Defense Council -- NRDC. [The review mentioned the owl-pellet section of the book]

New page for Central Park in the Dark



In order to keep the Central Park Nature News page devoted entirely to the natural goings-on of the park, I've created another page devoted entirely to my new book. I'll include reviews, publicity events and, perhaps, occasional musings about the "literary life."

To begin with the most recent review [and probably the most important for the book's well-being, the New York Times Book Review printed a review of Central Park in the Dark on June 22. It appeared on p. 9 of the Review and all things considered, it was a pretty favorable one. Here's the link:
