Published to universal acclaim: "A national monument ...The wider wonders of bird life rise from the pages of Birds Britannica like a distant flock of winter waders' Sunday Times. 'There are not many reference books I could happily read from cover to cover - but this is a welcome exception. The publishers claim that Birds Britannica is "a bird book like no other", and, for once, the hype is justified. Be warned: you may become so immersed in its pages that, before you realise it, the dawn chorus has begun' Evening Standard. 'Brims over with joy' Telegraph. 'British bird life has found its perfect encyclopedist ... The book is a triumph' Guardian
