Johann Reinhold Forster Knihy

Forster mal škótsky pôvod a narodil sa v Poľsku. Bol reformovaným kalvínskym kazateľom a priekopníckym ornitológom v Severnej Amerike. Jeho dielo spájalo hlboké duchovné presvedčenie s vášňou pre prírodný svet, čím sa stal jedinečnou postavou svojej doby. Skúmal a dokumentoval vtáčí život s vedeckou presnosťou aj poetickým citom.
