5.0 out of 5 stars
Informative, highly accessible, beautifully illustrated text,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Trogons and Quetzals of the World (Hardcover)
Paul Johnsgard is Foundation Professor of Biology at the University of Nebraska and draws upon his many years of experience and research to write a definitive treatise on trogons and quetzels with their shimmering golden-green feathers and long ornamental tail coverts, rainforest birds aptly described as being among the most beautiful in the world. Johnsgard's informative, highly accessible text is beautifully illustrated with color plates and line drawings (especially those of the renowned nineteenth-century illustrator John Gold) as he covers the evolution of their comparative biologies, anatomy and morphology, behavior, ecology, breeding biology, and aviary populations. An essential component of any comprehensive personal, professional, academic, or community library ornithological collection, Trogons And Quetzals Of The World is further enhanced with more than three hundred bibliographic references for further study.
