2000ref. 012509Oxford University Press 2000. Book. Excellent/very Good. Hard Boards. Extinct Birds by Fuller is 391pp index 1.8 kg to post We learn from an early age that nothing is quite so dead as a dodo. We've heard stories of flocks of passenger pigeons once darkening the skies over North America only to be reduced to a single bird Martha who perished in Cincinnati Ohio in 1914. Errol Fuller's gloriously illustrated Extinct Birds provides details of the natural history and fates of more than 80 species of birds now believed to be gone forever. In a lively compelling style Fuller conveys accurate scientific and historical information about the lives times and disappearances of bird species since 1600. Fuller's species accounts are vivid reminders of what birds precisely the world has already lost. The physical evidence provided by preserved specimens is given narrative texture with Fuller's use of eyewitness accounts of the lives and in many cases the last days of bird species from all over the world. Nearly all the accounts in Extinct Birds are illustrated with breathtaking color plates many by artists including Audubon Keulemans and Lear who had the advantage of working from fresh specimens or even from living birds. These paintings beautiful in their own right are also primary sources of scientific knowledge. Birds for which appropriate illustrations did not already exist are shown in new paintings produced especially for this book.The revised edition of Extinct Birds includes several species-among them three from North America-not covered in the original 1987 edition. More happily two species have been rediscovered in the intervening years and several others in danger of being declared extinct have been located again. By describing in words and pictures the beauty and diversity of those birds already lost to extinction Fuller inspires us to do what we can to prevent future editions of Extinct Birds from drawing new chapters from the field guides of today. reviewer says >>> A catalog of birds which have gone extinct mostly since the 1600s this book is interesting to the layperson as well as the ornithologist. The author includes interesting vignettes about the personalities and people who discovered and collected these birds and also interesting historical information about the areas where the birds resided. Lavish illustrations make the book worth checking out just for the pictures but the text is worth reading. Non-specialists should feel free to skip over the technical parts but don't miss the chance to discover interesting trivia about these creatures and the humans who studied them.
