Autorenporträt
An over seventy-year naturalist and birder, Peake has listed over half of the world's 10,000+ species of birds, including the cousin of the Eskimo curlew, the little curlew, the star of Rare Bird Alert. He has spent a lifetime wishing to see an Eskimo curlew and has known people who saw the last authenticated record of one on Galveston Island in 1963. He now lives in Galveston and still hopes to see one. He has published several books of poetry and four other novels: Jaykyll's Joust, an academic satire, Moon's Black Gold, and Beauty's No Biscuit, two novels dealing with murder and romance in the Appalachians during the coal boom of the 60's and 70's, and Love and Death on Safari, murder, and romance set on an African birding tour.
