This dazzling, large-format hardback presents John James Audubon's classic Birds of America in a brand new collector's edition, boldly presented in full-color with gold blocking and printed page edges.

Naturalist and painter John James Audubon published his magnificent work on the birds of North America over 11 years between 1827 and 1838, in Edinburgh and London. Today, it is considered one of the best-known natural history books ever produced and a benchmark of drawing skills for natural painters.

This beautiful new edition includes all 435 of Audubon's hand-colored prints, created from engraved plates, arranged in their modern taxonomic order as agreed by the International Ornithological Congress (IOC). The set of plates is accompanied by a full index of the birds, including the name given by Audubon, their modern name and scientific name.

This deluxe gift edition makes the perfect collectible for anyone interested in ornithology and natural history, beautifully presented, with illustrated endpapers, gold cover gilding, printed page edges and high-quality artworks throughout.
