A look at the world of birds, written by an ornithological expert. This book is more than just a guidebook, it is a lavishly illustrated and highly accessible encyclopedia detailing the main species of bird that inhabit Great Britain throughout the year. 300 species are identified. One thousand photographs and specially commissioned line illustrations work together with the text, enabling birds to be quickly and easily identified. Birdwatchers and all those interested in birds will find a wealth of essential information on the world of birds in this all-encompassing encyclopedia.

More of a history than a guidebook (though it is organized by sections of town and describes famous sites and buildings), this is a delightful introduction to Edinburgh's people, events, places, culture, stories, and monuments. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
