Golden Guides from St. Martin's Press, 2001

A Wealth of Information in a Small Package!
Bird Life was the first book about birds that I bought when I began seriously observing the birds in my neighborhood. I have more sophisticated guides to birds now, but I still refer to Bird Life for interesting bits of information that I just wouldn't find in any field guide. At only 4x6 inches in size and 160 pages, Bird Life looks like it was made to put in a pocket and take into the field. ...

Tilbury House Publishers, 1997

A great teaching resource for school or home
I had the immense pleasure of meeting both Pete Salmansohn and Steven Cress this summer at the Audubon camp on Hog Island, Maine. They are both dedicated naturalists and educators. They realize the future of the birds, and nature in general, lies with the youth of today. Although this book is geared towards grades 3 - 6, I teach honors zoology to juniors and seniors in high school. I find the ...
