How to Be a Better Birder: Travel Stories Michael Ketover

With his first book, How to Be a Better Birder, Michael Ketover emerges as an exciting voice in travel writing. Ketover blends the power of observation with global personal experience into an entertaining and provocative mixture of powerful tales. Ketover focuses on the birds and the joy in their songs amidst disrespect, lunacy, and violence. Maybe the extra attention to birds in his world will make you feel a bit more connected to the simple beauty of birds in your own. Michael Ketover is married to Kelli. He lives in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, by the Coral Sea. COVER PHOTO AND DESIGN: ADAM GAYNOR
