This book discussion features author Clay Henderson.

John James Audubon’s expedition to Florida 1831-1832 was the most significant journey of the famous artist/naturalist. Audubon’s Birds of Florida contains a chronology and thorough description of the expedition and includes high resolution reproductions of all the birds Audubon drew in Florida. Henderson has visited and searched for birds in each of the places explored by Audubon, with an understanding of how those places have changed. He has served as president of Florida Audubon Society and Florida Trust for Historic Preservation.
