The Life of the Robin by David Lack
The robin was hardly understood when David Lack - Britain's most influential ornithologist - started his scientific observations. This book is a landmark in natural history, not just for its discoveries, but because of the approachable style, sharpened with an acute wit. It reads as fascinatingly today as when it was written.David Lack (1910-73) was a well-known figure in the field of bird research. His groundbreaking life-history investigations sparked a surge in interest in bird ecology, as well as the publication of seminal works including The Life of the Robin, Darwin's Finches, and Swifts in a Tower.
