Descripción: In Where Song Began , Tim Low tells usthat he decided to write the book because ofone opposite of song: silence ; the silence ofthe ornithological community about the recentrevolution in our understanding of birds.For most of the Twentieth Century, it wasbelieved that birds originated in Europe. Therewas good reason for this: the oldest known bird,which looked much like a dinosaur, is Archaeopteryxlithographica , described by Meyer in1861. It lived in Germany during the Jurassic,150 million years ago and no older, uncontestablebird fossils have ever been found.
