I concur wholeheartedly. This new work deserves to be read cover-to-cover
by every birder - indeed every naturalist. It takes its place among the
best I have ever read: Terres' "Encyclopedia..." and Pasquier's "Watching
Birds" (the latter sadly long out of print).
For those of you who may find it useful, here's the ISBN: (OOPS!
Interestingly, there doesn't seem to be an ISBN for this book. Perhaps
ity's on the dust jacket, which I have thoughtlessly left upstairs. I don't
think I have ever seen a book - particularly a hardcover edition like this
is - that doesn't include its ISBN anywhere in the printed matter - cover or
content.)

Hi Everybody,
I just got my new copy of "The Sibley Guide to Bird Life and Behavior."
Wow! I know what I am going to be reading in front of the TV for the next
month. Got mine for 30% off list from Amazon.com. They had a more
descriptive editorial comment cut and pasted below.
