4.0 out of 5 stars background detail to book, 7 April 1999
By A Customer
To get an idea of the significance of this book, it may help to know that one of the contributors, Shahid Ali, spent months in London at the British Museum checking entries against preserved specimens. Hence, accuracy has been given due consideration in this volume. Shahid Ali, by the way, is grand nephew of Salim Ali, India's greatest ornithologist to date (his books are still relevant and can be ordered via Amazon!). If you cannot take the book with you into the field why not take Shahid! He is based in Mumbai (Bombay)..............
