About the Book

In No Finish Line, Dr. Bernard F. Master documents his adventures of birding all over the world. His first book also chronicles his service as a battalion surgeon in the Vietnam War, and his storied career as a medical and business professional in Ohio. As the title suggests, in life's arduous race, there is no finish line for Dr. Master.
Inside, readers will find the following:
- Stories from the Vietnam War
- Dr. Master's rare bird photos
- Vireo masteri, a bird named after Dr. Master
- Ivory-billed Woodpecker illustrations by famed American artist Julie Zickefoose
- Original photos of Japanese soldiers on American soil during WWII
"A quintessential journal of a successful American doctor and businessman, with birding providing the background fabric of a forty-year career. He is helping to save the planet through his support of education and nature conservation." -William J Mitsch, Eminent Scholar and Director, Everglades Wetland Research Park and Juliet C. Sproul Chair for Southwest Florida Habitat Restoration and Management, Florida Gulf Coast University; Professor Emeritus, The Ohio State University; 2004 Stockholm Water Prize Laureate "Dr. Master's leadership, medical expertise and human compassion made him the best battalion surgeon in the Fifth Mechanized Infantry Division in Vietnam. It was an honor to serve with him." -Klemm Ungemach, 1st Lt. MSC Corp
"Bernie Master has seen more species and bird families than almost anyone else on earth and shares his knowledge of birds with others as a lecturer, author, and photographer and as a board member of the American Birding Association, BirdLife International and many organizations in his home state of Ohio." -Peter W. Thayer, President of Thayer Birding Software
"Visiting nearly every corner of the globe, Dr. Master understands the importance of saving ecosystems to save birds. In the course of his journeys, he's encountered enough adventure to last several lifetimes."
 -Jim McCormac, Author of Wild Ohio: The Best of Our Natural Heritage
About the Author: Dr. Bernard F. Master spent thirty-five years as a family physician. His career highlights include founding a managed healthcare system in Ohio and taking his company Health Power, Inc., public before eventually selling. As an expert birder, he has spent four decades traveling the world to document his rare finds. His love of birds led to his activism in bird conservation. His current world bird total is 7,800 species.
