Reader comments
This book is great! As a mother of a new baby, it's been hard for me to find time to read lately, but this book helped me get back the joy of reading. Audubon's hand-painted bird illustrations are simply masterpieces of art that amaze me on every page. He grasped the details of the birds very accurately, and each bird was so lifelike that it seemed as if it was about to fly out of the paper. This book is not only an important material for scientific research, but also a rare art treasure.
