Pairing S. Dillon Ripley’s quarter century of study with over 70 color and black-and-white illustrations by J. Fenwick Lansdowne, this book marks a memorable ornithological publishing event. Both the book’s subject matter and its manner of production―lavishly illustrated, printed on special paper with relentless attention to every detail―represent worthy objects of celebration and preservation.
