A charming introduction to Hawai'i's birds

This book is best for casual birders who want to know about Hawai'i's ramarkable avifauna, but for whom birds are not the primary focus of their trip. Written in a straightforward interesting style, the book gives an overview of native and introduced birds, with some history about how the native birds have been decimated by human interference. Jack Jeffrey's photographs are breathtaking. Pratt, no mean photographer himself, has teamed with a true master of avian photography to produce a lovely little book.
