Praise for Norman Arlott:‘A very attractive portable guide […] stunningly attractive plates […] beautifully crafted, neat and crisp paintings’ Birdwatch magazine‘It's only small, but my goodness it makes your mouth water. Just look at all those babblers and warblers. It's like a big box of sweeties. A perfect present for a fellow bird-nut. Or then again, you could treat yourself.’Rob Innes, Cage & Aviary Birds‘This book is worth buying for the magnificent artwork alone.’ Eric Brown, Kentish Times
