HI ALL:
Yesterday I got the latest catalog from Buteo Books and I read that it
lists nearly 2000 titles of in-print bird book. As I was looking through
it I soon realized that at the rate I was going I be writing this bird
book guide for the REST OF MY LIFE! I spent last night trying to figure
out how to limit the scope of my book BUT still have it useful to birders.
Ideas ranged from a simple price guide (like you get for antiques) to a
"100 Top bird books". So my question is how do I limit the scope of the
book AND keep it useful to the average birder?
