Author unravels mystery on the origin of birds and birdcages

Ida Tomshinsky publishes ninth history-based book, ‘Birds and Cages’

MIAMI – Ida Tomshinsky, the author of books about the history of various accessories, publishes another history-based book; unleashing the mystery on birds and birdcages this time. Her ninth book is titled “Birds and Cages” (published by Xlibris).

Tomshinsky’s curiosity urged her to explore the subject of history of fashion accessories. She has written books on the history of hats, gloves, socks, handkerchiefs, burlap, handbags, bracelets and aprons. On her ninth book, she decided to write about another subject that has fascinated her: the birds and their birdcages.

“The book is a research project to awake awareness of the bird affairs phenomenon, to get closer to the mystery of the amazing flying creatures and to look into the complicated history of birdcages,” Tomshinsky says. “It is also to spread the concern on these creatures’ safety and well-being in the conditions nowadays.”

Tomshinsky wants her readers to gain knowledge and consciousness about these birds. She also hopes that by reading her book, the readers could contribute to the birds’ well-being through becoming nature-friendly.
