Best Books of the Month: Wall Street Journal, Kirkus Reviews From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Gulf, a sweeping cultural and natural history of the bald eagle in America. The bald eagle is regal but fearless, a bird you’re not inclined to argue with. For centuries, Americans have celebrated it as “majestic” and “noble,” yet savaged the living bird behind their national symbol as a malicious predator of livestock and, falsely, a snatcher of babies. Taking us from before the nation’s founding through inconceivable resurgences of this enduring all-American species, Jack E. Davis contrasts the age when native peoples lived beside it peacefully with that when others, whether through hunting bounties or DDT pesticides, twice pushed Haliaeetus leucocephalus to the brink of extinction. Filled with spectacular stories of Founding Fathers, rapacious hunters, heroic bird rescuers, and the lives of bald eagles themselves—monogamous creatures, considered among the animal world’s finest parents—The Bald Eagle is a much-awaited cultural and natural history that demonstrates how this bird’s wondrous journey may provide inspiration today, as we grapple with environmental peril on a larger scale.

This book details a proposal for a constitutional amendment to create a Third House of Congress comprised of tribunes, appointed by lot. In the last century, the American system of representation was changed. These changes have had consequences. These consequences have created a dangerous imbalance between the common interests and the particular interests within the country. This imbalance is not well understood, even in high precincts, and many of the ideas currently esteemed by the population support the conditions of the imbalance. In part two, the Third House contains an account of the changes and the ideas supporting and discrediting those changes. Elsewhere, the Third House of Congress contains the Third House Amendment, a description of how the Third House of Congress will address many of the systemic dysfunctions in our government and our strategy to actually enact the amendment.
