"I would stand no risk of being accused of hyperbole were I to state that birders have been waiting for this book for a very long time . . . Cin-Ty Lee and Andrew Birch continue to provide identification tips for birds that are among the most difficult to identify, especially where the ranges of similar species overlap. It is not without courage that such a challenge has been accepted by this author and this artist."---David M. Gascoigne, Travels with Birds "[ Field Guide to North American Flycatchers] is an exceptional identification guide, innovative in its focus on holistic identification presented through detailed, readable text; scientific illustrations; diagrammatic presentations of vocalizations and geographic distribution, and explanations of how to put it all together to come up with an identification. . . . Birchs brilliantly precise illustrations of each species are laid out in comparative plates, with Lees text describing the often subtle differences amongst them."---Donna Schulman, 10,000 Birds "Essential reading. . . . What Prof. Lee and Mr. Birch have provided to the birdwatching and natural history communities deserves high praise indeed. Ensuring that their work is read, employed, and recommended are three of the best ways to seeing to that they receive due recognition for it."---John E. Riutta, The Well-read Naturalist "The authors expertise is shared methodically and with great clarity, making it very accessible."---Bo Beolens, FatBirder
