Marzluff and illustrated by Tony Angell Many parts of this book are “better-than-average” to “very good”. The topic(s) are certainly very interesting and the author addresses them with commendable scholarship and skill.The author has also provided a vast scope of information about the Corvids and their long-standing relation(s) with humans. Alas, it's only fair and right to forewarn readers of a serious “downside” to this book. To be fair to Mr. Marzluff and his amigos, it's a flaw common to books edited by academics instead of people who make their full-time living as editors. The primary text of the edition I have ends on page 307.It could have, would have, and should have ended on about page 225 – but didn't simply because of the excessive redundancy ofpoints and assertions. As just one example, one of the author's main themes is that urbanization and closer association with humans has benefited Crow populations at the expense of other species. That point is used here like the refrain of a song. Think about the old party song “100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall” and recall how many times you will sing: “...take one down and pass it around...” by the time the song is finished. Now you have an idea of how many times Marzluff thinks you need to be told that Crows benefited from urbanization. HOWEVER... I saved two more very positive and important (imho) observations for now. Pages 308 – 311 contain a brief list of books about Crows – for children. Being a very, very firm believer in raising children outdoors and NOT in front of the TV, I think this time-saving little list is a GREAT inclusion here. In other news, Tony Angell's many drawings gracing this book do add (again, imho) an especially valuable facet to the book. After all, Crows and Ravens are not the easiest birds to draw and making bird drawings (or photos) with poses that are both natural and pretty has perplexed bird aficionados, artists and photographers since Genesis. It is abundantly clear that Mr. Angell has studied his subjects at great length and his renderings are splendid.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful.Unlock the great mystery of the Raven and the Crow.By C. EvansIn the Company of Crows and Ravens is a really wonderful book with lots of interesting information and facts based on years of studies involving the Crow, Raven and various related birds. I have purchased the book in paperback and kindle edition, the kindle edition has numerous formatting errors and is still very legible.These birds have been around for thousands of years and are extremely misunderstood, their intelligence is unlike any other of the animal world. One characteristic I found interesting is that Crows pass on information socially and much like the way people learn in our society.The author discusses the fact that these birds are intelligent and adaptable and survivors much like mankind. I found the book extremely useful as I wanted to know more about Ravens and Crows, the author goes to great efforts to accurately describe the detailed life of these birds interacting with the natural and man made world. One aspect I wasn't aware of is that the Raven came across the Bering Straits with the Wolf prior to the arrival of man, the author explains that the Raven is often referred to as a "Wolf Bird". The thing I found interesting is that the more man develops and populates in cities the more these birds populate and prosper in their cultural co-evolution. I highly recommend this book to anyone that is seeking to learn more about the medicine of these intelligently powerful and mysterious birds.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.Crows are cool and this book is tooBy John GThis is the second crow book by these guys I've read. I liked it better than the first one, because it was more general and covered lots of territory. Some of the anecdotes are unbelievable, and it gives one a new appreciation for the phrase "bird brain." I think crows are fascinating, and, if you do too, give this book a try. By the way, I bought mine used from a library out in California, and it was in great shape.See all 65 customer reviews...
