1.0 out of 5 stars Dont't Buy this Book, July 8, 2000
By 
David H Sackett (Florence, OR USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New Generation Guide to the Birds of Britain and Europe (Corrie Herring Hooks Series) (Hardcover)
Don't buy this book. Half (160 of 320 pages) is devoted to material on behavior and general characteristics, that is too simplified for a biologist (or veteran birder) and too detailed for some one seeking identification of new species. The identification sections show 7 birds per page, without size or habitat perspective. The illustrations are accurate to the extent of my observations, and range maps are shown on the ID pages. The print is about 6 point, and I simply could not read it in the field. The authors are obviously expert and anxious to please, but this book will not please anyone.
