Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This completely illustrated book thoroughly covers the bird decoys of the American Mid-Atlantic region. The photographs are clear, allowing the reader to identify details. Woven through the text are historical facts that help date hand-made decoys of antique, as well as modern, origin. There is an explanation of how weights are used in decoys and how condition affects value. After a full discussion of the decoys, Mr. Fleckenstein includes suggestions on repairing decoys, a complete list of makers, and recommended reading.

About the Author

Mr. Fleckenstein has collected decoys since boyhood when he hunted with his father in the Chesapeake Bay area. He now runs a business in antiques and decoys and has an impressive fund of source material gleaned from his frequent conversations with decoy carvers, Bay River men, fishermen, hunters and local historians.

2.0 out of 5 stars Repeat of the First Edition., December 16, 2008
By Howard W. Nickle (Thornton, PA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am a decoy collector. I have the first edition of this book by Henry Fleckenstein. The 2nd edition promised an updated value guide. It was not in the book. If you don't have the first edition, this book is good but it is word for word the same as the first edition but is missing the decoy value guide.
