"This is an exceptionally well-illustrated book, solidly produced,
and chock-full of information for the serious birder's library or
coffee table. It is a book to dip into or drool over while fancying
beautiful and interesting birds in faraway places which we can hope
to visit one day."
*Audubon Naturalist News*
"This is a major identification reference work covering a confusing
and difficult group of species. It is a book that every
ornithologist and serious birder will want to own. Most highly
recommended."
*Wildlife Activist*
"The illustrations are attractive and useful for identification of
all 290 finches. In many cases these are the best available color
plates for the species."
*Quarterly Review of Biology*
