5.0 out of 5 stars A "must have" for bird lovers - just for the plates, 11 April 2006

By	Christopher J. Sharpe "Chris Sharpe" (Caracas, Venezuela) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a perfectly viable field guide to the birds of Europe and, if it weren't for the existence of the Collins Guide, it could easily be a top recommendation. One thing marks this book apart from other field guides though: the illustrations are so beautiful that they might have been painted for art's sake alone. I have been fascinated by Jonsson's gulls and shorebirds from an earlier series published by habitat and now to have all the birds together is just wonderful. His paintings capture the "jizz" of the bird better than those of any other artist I know. This book will give great aesthetic pleasure long before (and after) one gets it into the field.

4.0 out of 5 stars a classic but not very well printed, 17 Feb 2009

By	Ivens Koen Herman Cecilia (Rome, Italy) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Birds of Europe (Paperback)

Considered one of the best fieldguides, I agree. I love Lars Jonsson's work. Poor print quality.
