John James Audubon (1785-1851) was self-taught artist, naturalist and celebrated ornithologist. Born in Haiti and raised in France, Audubon then emigrated to North America when he was 18 years old to avoid conscription into the Napoleonic wars. For many years he worked as a trading merchant, before turning to his true passion: ornithology. Audubon spent many years travelling the North American continent, identifying and recording bird species. The book he published of his research, The Birds of America was an immediate success, with Audubon becoming a household name in the nineteenth century. It is still considered to be one of the greatest works of ornithology ever created. Peter Gray is long established book illustrator who has worked on a wide-range of subject matters, from classic fiction to educational and historical subjects. He has also worked on storyboards and costume design for the film industry and regularly contributes illustrations to national newspapers (Financial Times, Sunday Times) and magazines (The Spectator, Readers' Digest). He lives in Suffolk, UK.
