5.0 out of 5 stars Superb!, 21 Aug 2001
By A Customer
I went to America first in August 1984, and I bought a field guide whilst I was over there. It helped a lot then, and it also heped when I went over in August 1997. I needed a new field guide however, because my skills as a birdwatcher now demand a little more from a field guide. The illustrations in the first one were not of a hgh enough quality to satisfy these needs. I then found this field guide. . .

In this field guide are undoubtedly some of the best illustrations in any American birdbook that I have ever seen. Seeing as I have already been to America and seen some of their birds, I was relieved to find that when I bought this, the illustrations were an exact, concise representation of the bird. The maps, which show the state borders as well as the distribution of the birds, are logically colour-coded and easy to understand. The bird descriptions themselves fall under the categories of "range", "call", "male", "female" etc, these words being highlighted to make them easier to find when scanning through the text, looking for a certain characteristic.

And with an index and checklist rolled into one, this is one of the best Americn field guides out there - detailed, while not being too detailed that there is TOO much to take in.
