Available from 12 December 2008. This long-awaited book will be the finest and most complete identification handbook of the birds of Western Palearctic ever produced. Unlike many other guides, the handbook is illustrated with high-quality photography, which, together with the comprehensive text, details the entire plumage spectrum and geographical variation of every species in the region. The book will be packed with information, guiding birders through the complexities of ageing and sexing, and enabling them to identify challenging species and plumages in the field. The book also contains details of the very latest taxonomic research. 1000 pages.
