Unpaginated sequence of b/w engravings, making up an alphabetical sequence. Contents clean and bright. "Colin See-Paynton has introduced yet another vision to the rich tradition of wood engraving. His delight in the lines of a bird so elegantly inscribed by the cut of his graver, his skill in varying texture even though he only has black and white with which to do so, his palpable pleasure in composing his subjects into joyous designs have brought something new to the portrayal of birds. It is a true privilege to provide these few words to introduce them" (David Attenborough). RightWayUp Books aims to provide accurate and detailed descriptions.
