Product Information
We learn from an early age that nothing is quite so dead as a dodo. We've heard stories of flocks of passenger pigeons once darkening the skies over North America, only to be reduced to a single bird, Martha, who perished in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1914...

Reviews
"Man's destructive impulses are . . . documented in Errol Fuller's work Extinct Birds. . . Well-researched. . . beautifully illustrated in colour and black and white. . . It also offers a collection of fine bird art by Audubon . . . and other important wildlife painters."-Bird Watching, November 1988, "We couldn't put this book down. The life histories and eyewitness accounts of more than 80 'recently extinct' bird species were simply too engrossing. And the illustrations . . . are eerily beautiful."--Birders' World, December 2001, "The author has carried out his chosen task of historical and bibliographical research exceedingly well, in a way that will satisfy even the most critical, but he also has a way with words, and manages to breathe life into the accounts without departing from accuracy. He is also emotionally involved, angered by the senseless destruction of so many beautiful and interesting birds, and his book is none the worse for that. . . . All told, this is a first-class book, which can be most confidently recommended."--J. A. Gibson. Archives of Natural History, Vol. 15, Part 3, October 1988, "Fuller is an artist, not an ornithologist or a writer--and the physical beauty of his profusely illustrated book reflects this--but there is nothing amateurish about either the science or the writing of Extinct Birds. The grasp of theory and taxonomy is secure, and the language sparkles."--William Ashworth, Times Literary Supplement, January 11, 2002, "Fuller is an artist, not an ornithologist or a writer-and the physical beauty of his profusely illustrated book reflects this-but there is nothing amateurish about either the science or the writing of Extinct Birds.

Some of them are simply superb."-Bill Oddie.

All told, this is a first-class book, which can be most confidently recommended."-J. A. Gibson. Archives of Natural History, Vol. 15, Part 3, October 1988, "Among the species lost in just the last several hundred years are creatures ranging from the nearly fantastical and exquisite to the comical. Their pictures and histories have been collected in a newly revised book that is in itself an ode to the remarkable record on birds, the obsessively researched and beautifully illustrated Extinct Birds by Errol Fuller, an artist."--Carol Kaesuk Yoon, New York Times, "The illustrations are one of the chief delights of this book. Some of them are simply superb."--Bill Oddie. New Scientist, December 1987
