Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The Handbook is an indispensable reference for all serious students of ornithology. It was first published in ten volumes between 1968 and 1975. When the first Compact Edition appeared in 1983, it included texts of the second editions of Volumes I-III, and the first editions of Volumes IV-X.
This new edition of the Compact Edition contains the completely revised text of Volumes I-IV in a more useable, photographically reduced form. Over one hundred color plates of all bird species found in the region embellish the text. "A monumental and masterful analysis of the avifauna of the
Indian subcontinent....The Handbook will remain the standard reference...for many decades."--The Auk
