This will be a great book once they get the problems ironed out. It's a shame after several postponements, it wasn't right when published. The text in particular is extremely detailed, and the photos are stunning, a nice companion to Grant's classic. (I ordered mine the day before word started popping up about the problems.) Good birding!!
