Book Synopsis The Race to Save the World's Rarest Bird by : Alvin Powell
Book excerpt: In the early 1970s, a never-before-seen species of bird was discovered in Hawaii; thirty years later, only a few pooulis were left, and scientists raced to save the species from extinction. This true-life scientific adventure story describes those efforts and why they were doomed to fail, offering a poignant examination of the Endangered Species Acts effectiveness.
