Written with the artist or sculptor in mind, this painstakingly detailed reference to the bald eagle covers the anatomy of the bird down to a feather. Exact anatomical sketches—done in multiple dimensions, from various angles, and in many different postures—provide a visual study unmatched by other references. Some drawings focus specifically on one part of the bird, such as a single contour feather, while other portraits show the whole animal in motion—soaring, diving, and perching. Color charts of the top and underside of the bird and a gallery of award-winning interpretations of the bald eagle round out the collection, making it an enduring source of inspiration for artists.

An absolute must for any wildlife artists' library! Should however be offered in a "Spiral Bound" Edition.

A very comprehensive reference book on the eagle. Skeletal structure is illustrated and upper and lower details of each wing is provided in excellent detail. Color information is also provided. An excellent reference for woodcarving, painting and similar uses.
