Recensioner i media

This a thoroughly revised and updated edition of what is now claimed to be, surely justifiably, the most comprehensive guide to the birds of Nepal. Not only have the texts been completely rewritten, but they face the illustrations (many replaced) of more than 790 species on the plates.
