Guy Mountfort Libros

All the species accounts have been rewritten, and the 364 range maps have been updated. Although this book will be used by expert birders, in the words of Roger Tory Peterson, known throughout the world for his classic guides, "the purpose of this field guide is to make it easier for 999 out of 1,000 readers to identify birds."

Wild Paradise is the true story of two amateur ornithologists who embark on a perilous expedition to the island of Trinidad to study the elusive oilbird. With humor and suspense, Mountfort recounts their encounters with dangerous animals and hostile terrain, and celebrates the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
