HI ALL:
I came up with a sample account for the "A Field Guide to Bird Books"
idea I've been playing with. It is for the National Geographic guide (4th
ed.):

Dickinson, May B. (editor).
Field Guide to the Birds of North America (4th edition).
2002. National Geographic Society 480 pages.
IP: $21.95 paperbound.
N.B.: Earlier editions: 1983, 1987, and 1999. This edition has
revised/updated maps, and a quick-find index added. Also some of the
plates are new.

N.B.= nota bene. IP= In print.

I had a hard time trying to figure out whats book to include. I came up
with the idea if I were starting a birder's library from scratch, what
books would I want in that new library. Any comments?
