Meeting Room C

A monthly book discussion.

Discuss The Ravenmaster: My Life with the Ravens at the Tower of London by Christopher Skaife.

In this intimate behind-the-scenes account of life with the ravens of the Tower, the Ravenmaster shares the folklore, history, and superstitions surrounding the birds and their home. The result is a compelling and inspiring story that is irreverent, delightful, and surprising to anyone interested in British history or animal behavior.
