The Feather Thief: Beauty, Obsession, and the Natural History Heist of the Century by Kirk Wallace Johnson

5.0

---

Part true-crime, part natural history, this book makes it to 5 stars because it manages to make the theft of feathers from a natural history museum and salmon fly-tying so incredibly interesting. I realize that those topics don’t sound very enticing, but trust me, this book is really good. Great on audio as well. Highly recommend.
