Reviews

'...the contents are superb, and in the few days that I have had this book I have already referred to it several times. This is a brilliant work.' Bird Watching (March 2010) 'This book will answer all those questions about why you are seeing more, or less, of a particular bird.' Bexley Times (March 2010) 'An excellent reference book.' RSPB '...an up-to-date summary of avian distribution, status and especially taxonomy for all our islands, this comprehensive book deserves an audience...' Birdwatch (August 2010)
