Kenn
Kaufman's Latest Book... |
 The
Observatory Gift Shop is now carrying Kenn
Kaufman's newest book - Flights
Against the Sunset as well as all of
the Kaufman Field Guides.
Flights Against the Sunset brings together
nineteen essays, mostly adapted from
Kaufman's long-running column in Bird
Watcher's Digest. They weave an original
story that examines how we communicate about
our passions with those who do not share the
same interests and how to celebrate the
world of infinite possibilities and wonder.
