Reviews

This book definitely provides material that is otherwise unavailable in a concise format on Texas birds... For this reason, I think it will be an important resource for professional ornithologists, as well as birders. Mark Lockwood, Secretary of the Texas Birds Records Committee, Texas Ornithological Society
