Kaufman Field Guide to Birds of North America by Kenn Kaufman

In 2000, Houghton Mifflin first published the Kaufman Focus Guide to the Birds of North America. Critically acclaimed for its innovative design, the Kaufman guide introduced a new generation to birding. This new Kaufman Field Guide to Birds of North America is today’s most up-to-date field guide, including dozens of changes by the American Ornithologists’ Union in official names of birds, the addition of new species to reflect the latest scientific discoveries, and dozens of updated range maps. Kaufman also provides a wealth of advice to help new birders get started, all in the same compact format that has made this guide a must-have for fast identification in the field.
