I read this review today and thought you might like to know about this new book:
"Newly released by the University of Virginia Press is The History of
Ornithology in Virginia (2004), authored by David Johnston. It is a
very
informative and useful work that explores the bird life of Virginia
back to
prehistoric time, to colonial time to today. It also examines Virginia
birders and ornithologists of note, and there have been quite a number.
Because many of the early avian enthusiasts who contributed
significantly
to the science, art and conservation of bird life in the Americas had
footing in Virginia, this scholarly but very readable, 219-page book is
not
nearly as provincial as the title might indicate. It is well worth the
$35.00 price tag. To order, call 1-800-831-3406, or order by email at
unpressva@xxxxxxxxxxxxx"
