In recent years concern has grown that migrant birds may be declining, perhaps because of deforestation at their winter quarters in the Caribbean and in Central and South America. In Say Goodbye to the Cuckoo, Michael McCarthy highlights for the first time the disappearance of these birds which, he points out, are a part of Europe's distinctive cultural furniture, as much as cathedrals, Latin, olive oil, or wine. He shows how their loss would do devastating damage to the cultural inheritance of us all.
