Trade ReviewPraise for Princeton's previous edition: "[T]his handy volume is certain to become as essential as binoculars."--David Tomlinson, New Scientist Praise for Princeton's previous edition: "The books are compact, convenient guides for birders and scientists interested in identifying birds while visiting the regions. Their small, lightweight sizes make for easy packing and carrying in the back pocket while trudging around the countryside. They are the perfect alternative to the larger guides that are too large for travelling and often have more information than is necessary for field identification."--Condor
