Fascinating reading. . . . [This] finally eclipses . . . the old field guide . . . that in its various forms held sway for more than fifty years. . . . The illustrations . . . are exceptionally beautiful. . . . Indispensable.--Stephen Mills "Times Literary Supplement "
The current consensus is that the finest field guide to the exotic archipelagos of the Caribbean is "Birds of the West Indies" by Herbert Raffaele. Now that I've visited the region a few times, I can definitely agree! . . . The abundant illustrations are crisp, colorful, and mostly accurate while the text is succinct yet informative.--Mike Bergin "10,000 Birds "
