'To the real
Jonathan Livingston Seagull,
who lives within us all.'
about Richard Bach

His books espouse his philosophy that our apparent physical limits and mortality are merely appearance. He claims to be a direct descendant of Johann Sebastian Bach. He is noted for his love of flying and for his books related to air flight and flying in a metaphorical context. He has pursued flying as a hobby since the age of 17.
The story is about Jonathan Livingston Seagull , an ordinary seagull who is more interested to know about flying then just eating fish.
