Review
"Brilliant." —It's Nice That"Features shots so detailed that they make the often maligned bird look almost exotic." —Wall Street Journal"Garn wants to give New York City pigeons a public relations makeover, urging people to stop and take a good look at them." —amNewYork"Showcases their overlooked beauty in a series of sometimes humorous, sometimes startling images." —Atlas Obscura"Puts this sometimes reviled and nearly always unheeded bird on a pedestal, bringing to light the nature in the midst of America’s most populous city. The book promises that the 'savvy, graceful, kind pigeon will be invisible no more.'" —PDN "Far from fluff balls of grays, Garn’s subjects are pristine models who show off stunning, unexpected hallmarks: lavender eyes, heart-shaped wings, glam ruffled feet that recall outlandish rave boots." —HyperallergicIncluded in Buzzfeed News' best photography books from 2018: "25 Photography Books That Will Change Your View Of The World" Included in The Stategist's "Year’s Most Giftable Coffee-Table Books (So Far)" 4/19/18As seen in: The New York Times, WNYC, Alternet, FOX 5, Brokelyn, NY1, Buzzfeed, BBC, The Guardian, My Modern Met, El País, Chronogram, CBS New York, National Geographic

As a lifelong San Franciscan, I have been around Pigeons my entire life. I’ve often wondered, why they always got such a bad rap, as they didn’t ask to come into the world in this form. I’d often seem them limping on the streets of the city, sometimes without a foot or with a broken wing from barbed wire or other pigeon traps. In my opinion, all they were trying to do is survive, like the rest of us. I know peoplethink they are dirty, but I think they are lovely and beautiful. Andrew Garn’s incredible book is an homage to these creatures; it is so beautifully photographed, it will take your breath away! There is a brief history, an anatomy study which I found fascinating and then the story of each of the birds he had photographed.There isn’t a story that I didn’t love. Their colors, their personalities all shine in Mr. Garn’s book. Thank you so much for this treasure! B. Lucero, Mill Valley, CA
Pigeons are important. I never realized that until I started feeding them. And then I found a baby who I knew would not survive and brought him home. During that time, I read everything I could find about them....They are fantastic animals. Andrew's book will show you and tell you why. The photos are technically stunning, and show the exquisite beauty of these birds - that most people overlook. Why? Because they are so common? Well so are humans............The text is educational and enlightening and sometimes very sad. People and our man-made toxins are not always very kind to pigeons. There is a chapter about the incredibly dedicated people who fix them up and send them on their way, if possible; and about others who take them into their homes. I've been showing this book to everyone that I know, and most, if not all are quite surprised. They actually look at every single page. No flipping. Andrew has given us all a gift - he's shown us the beauty and the extraordinary, that exists right under our very noses. I don't know anyone who has seen the book who will walk past a pigeon without pausing for a moment in appreciation of an animal that they previously scorned or ignored.
A NYC resident myself, I never imagined I would one day think of pidgeons (or as we like to call them, rats with wings) as ‘magestic’ creatures. Turns out, they’re simply beautiful. As is this book. It’s always the book our guests grab first from our coffee table, and the reactions are great!
I always found pigeons to be incredibly beautiful and diverse in their color and markings. This extraordinary book captures their beauty in magnificent photos and gives a great history of their coexistence with the people and architecture of NY city. A great coffee table addition.
Beautiful book, well conceived from start to finish. I've been enjoying it every evening. Highly recommend to anyone.
What an eye-opening and delightful book! Thanks for educating me on the beauty and intelligence of these under-appreciated creatures.
Such a niche but lovely book! The photos are gorgeous, and it's a good coffee table size.
Difficult to find great pigeon related gifts...but a year ago found a wonderful piece of art on Amazon...and this year this beautiful book! Excellent photography...will be cherished for a long time. Love our pigeons!
