He had a talent for drawing and an interest in birds, and he would spend the next thirty-five years traveling to the remotest regions of his new country-often alone and on foot-to render his avian subjects on paper. The works of art he created gave the world its idea of America. They gave America its idea of itself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHere Richard Rhodes vividly depicts Audubon's life and career: his epic wanderings; his quest to portray birds in a lifelike way; his long, anguished separations from his adored wife; his ambivalent witness to the vanishing of the wilderness. \u003ci\u003eJohn James Audubon: The Making of an American\u003c\/i\u003e is a magnificent achievement.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"John James Audubon: The Making of an American | Richard Rhodes | Paperback | 9780375713934 | Used: Like New | Biography 1556926 (temp: 26)","offer_id":48883982008472,"sku":"1556926","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91C_JIYxhnL.jpg?v=1776479780","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/john-james-audubon-the-making-of-an-american","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
