A very large sized book that is much more than bird art. It is an attempt to catalog the premier artists and their work checking in on each continent and showing how the print medium from wood blocks to the field guides has joined art, ornithology, and publishing in a spiral of new images. The birds stay the same, but our ability to see them and show them does change dramatically. Of course I should qualify that statement, if they do not go extinct, the species same the same from generation to generation.
