5.0 out of 5 stars Possibly the MOST complete book of southern african birds, January 3, 2000

Through years of living in Southern Africa this book has helped me with its comprehensive descriptions and photographs. Though, due to its massive size, it is hardly a worthy travel-companion, it is a very lovely coffee-table or study-table book

This review is from: Complete Book of Southern African Birds (Hardcover)

We purchased this book when we were in Botswana this August. This book is magnificient! It was an invaluable resource as we saw an incredible array of birds in the wild. It also is a great book to have around here in the States as the pictures are fantastic. Good resource info on the evolution and classification of birds as well. A must buy for anyone interested in birds, especially those of Southern Africa.
