Reviews

[Brychan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Although it's old the book hasn't aged too badly. The passion Beebe had for the subject comes across strongly and makes it very enjoyable to read. It covers a lot of content without going too far into details, which makes it interesting and accessible to casual readers like myself. I would recommend it if you're interested in ornithology and have access to it.
