Now Donald and Lillian Stokes offer novice birders the best introductory guides ever produced—two pocked-sized books that provide instant access to the most commonly sighted species in the east and in the west. They're packed with innovative new features that no other beginner guide includes: organization by bird's plumage colors—a unique format that makes identification much easier for beginners; user-friendly color tab indexes for quick reference; coverage of more than 100 species in each book—more than any other beginner guide; color photographs of each species, including separate images of males and females when plumage differs.
