Jonathan Livingston Seagull, the most talked-about, inspiring story of our time, tells the life of a bird determined not to be ordinary. This modern classic best seller, published with a beautiful new cover, is the story of people who want to follow their dreams and make their own rules, and has inspired people for decades.
"Most gulls only bother to learn the simplest facts of flight - how to get from shore to food and back again," writes author Richard Bach in this allegory about a unique bird named Jonathan Livingston Seagull. "For them, it is not flying that matters, but eating. But for this gull, the joy of flying was more important." The act of flying is actually the metaphor that gives this story its profound meaning. This modern classic best seller is a tale about the quest for higher meaning in life, even if your flock, tribe, or neighborhood finds your ambition threatening (at one point, our beloved gull is exiled from his own flock).
Without risking his high vision, Jonathan learns the importance of love and kindness and receives the ultimate reward - excellence. The dreamy illustrations by Russell Munson are just the right illustrations for this classic work of spirituality that has inspired thousands of readers to follow their own path in life and fulfill their true purpose.

The new enriched edition of a classic book with the fourth part of Jonathan Livingston Seagull that the author kept in a drawer for years.
