The Ravenmaster: Life with the Ravens at the Tower of London
by Christopher Skaife
The book delighted me by being an intertwining of ravens, the Tower of London, and the author's own life. I had been expecting the first two elements, but had rather unconsciously assumed science would be the third; I'm glad that it wasn't. Because the author wove in his own life experiences we get something uniquely intimate. I especially enjoyed the parallels he draws between his life as a soldier and his life as a carer for ravens, the similarities were completely unexpected and enlightening.
Ultimately this book feels exactly like a great conversation with a favorite uncle down at the pub one long and relaxed evening.
