A Birdwatchers' Guide to IndiaIndispensable guide to over 90 sites and areas, for birds as well as other wildlife. Contains a checklist of Indian birds and the first comprehensive checklist of mammals.`I have been unable to find fault with the areas that I am familiar with and the maps are almost like visiting the site again. It is full of detail on both the major sites and a wealth of smaller sites, all of which are well worth a visit. This means that the book has something for both the first time visitor and regular Indian birders. This is a well thought-out book crammed with useful information; the authors are to be congratulated. If you wish to see Indian birds, this book is an absolute must.' Nigel Lindsey |
