The publisher claims that the Collins Bird Guide by Killian
Mullarney, Lars Svensson, Dan Zetterström and Peter Grant is the most
complete field guide to the birds of Britain and Europe—and for once the
dust jacket hype is correct. This is not only the most complete, it is also the
best yet. As essential as binoculars for those who takes birding seriously.
Beautiful illustrations by Mullarney and Zetterström complement the text.
Published by HarperCollins, £24.99, ISBN 0002197286.
