James Briskie in RECENT ORNITHOLOGICAL PUBLICATIONS
"The book is well-produced.The plates are generally of high quality and illustrate not only the standard poses found in field guides but also views of birds in flight."
Guy McCaskie in AMERICAN BIRDING ASSOCIATION; BIRDING
"Rising's first-hand experience with the North American sparrows is apparent, especially so in his sections on voice, habits, and habitat. I highly recommend Sparrows of the United States and Canada to all birders and field ornithologists with any interest in these birds. It contains up-to-date informationas well as some of the best available illustrations of this difficult-to-identify group of birds, and all at a very reasonable price."
Reader Reviews
Sparrows. Yippee. But if you want to learn them, this is the book. Lots of detail, as you'd expect, but very clearly presented. Terrific illustrations and range maps. And what I like, but some will hate, is the fairly detailed treatment of every field-identifiable subspecies. Some of these subspecies will become full species some day, if present trends continue, and you'll be way ahead of the game if you've already been working on telling them apart. Plus it's fun; just try to keep an open mind.
