|  | The Snow Geese
William Fiennes has been enthralled by snow geese for much of his life (ever since he read Paul Gallico's THE SNOW GOOSE as a child). Here he relates how he has followed them on their migrations, from the Gulf of Mexico to Baffin Island. He also tells how the birds' migration patterns have been studied by scientists and analyzes their appearance and behavior in detail. In passing, he provides vivid descriptions of his travels through such places as Texas, South Dakota, and Winnipeg.
