About this product
Product Information
The complete edition of a timeless classic, includes the recently rediscovered Part Four and 'Last Words' by Richard Bach.Jonathan Livingston Seagull, the most celebrated inspirational fable of our time, tells the story of a bird determined to be more than ordinary. 'Most gulls don't bother to learn more than 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 most gulls it is not flying that matters, but eating. For this gull, though, it was not eating that mattered, but flight.' Flight is indeed the metaphor that makes this story soar. This bestselling modern classic is a fable about seeking a higher purpose in life, even if your flock, tribe or neighbourhood finds your ambition threatening (at one point our beloved gull is even banished from his flock). By not compromising his higher vision, Jonathan learns the meaning of love and kindness and gets the ultimate payoff - transcendence. The dreamy illustrations by Russell Munson provide just the right illustrations for this spirituality classic that has inspired thousands of readers to follow their own path in life and so fulfill their true potential.Product Identifiers

A must read for inspiration
I was made aware of this book by a work colleague over 40 years ago. I read it annually to focus my mind and improve my confidence playing sport. It 'takes you away' and makes me want to achieve. Try it, it may have a different affect on you, but that's what it does for me.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Superb author and story, but disappointing printed edition.
Wonderful story with some nice photographs which would NOT appeal too much to little children. That is not such a disaster as the writing stands up on its own. Unfortunately this edition is in extremely small print and children will not want to read it on their own because of this. The author deserves better, as indeed does the readership. If anyone knows of a COMPLETE edition such as this, but of very much larger dimensions (and font) I would be truly grateful to hear from them.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A wonderful book
Over the years I have bought many of this book as gifts for friends and family. This book means something special and different for every person. You can read it as a story about a seagull or it can give you a whole different view on your world. EnjoyVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Jonathan Livingston Seagull
This book should be read, re read and then passed on so others can share the message. This must be the 6th copy of Jonathan Livingston Seagull that I have purchased and I already know who I will be passing it onto!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good intentions
First chapter was encouraging, but for me it gets a little silly. The Morales and alternate thinking is positive, so I guess that's what makes it worth reading. I find it looses it's way midway onward, so it's encouraging to read but the meaning is taught pretty much straight away, so not much point carrying on but that's just my opinion.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
