[It] significantly resets the bar for North America field guides."-- Wayne Petersen, Massachusetts Audubon Society, "With everything you need (and nothing you don't) toidentify more than 250 species of North American birds, this book is a work ofgenius. Only the Stokes could have created a guide so slim, yet so clear,concise, and welcoming. This is THE guide I'll be carrying into thefield!"-- Sy Montgomery, author of Birdology, [I]f one is going to own a photographic field guide for the birds of North America, the Stokes now have the most complete book on the market...The list of each species subspecies and hybrids is a wonderful touch; I can't think of any other field guide that ever included such information...you can't go wrong with this guide., "This is a glorious book put together with loving attention to detail...a superb, good-value field guide."-- Mark Cocker, BBC Wildlife, "By far the most comprehensive North American field guide I have in my possession.

    • Easy to use bird watching book

      This is a great resource for those who love birdwatching. Doesn't include all birds, but a quick reference for beginners. Great pictures, not drawings.
