Waterfowl is a gorgeous, oversized art book., 1998-01-10
by K. Roberts (PA, USA)
Waterfowl of North America is a gorgeous, oversized art book of 133 pages -- 51 of those pages are full-sized plates of Robin Hill's paintings on ducks, geese, and swan in natural settings. It is printed on a matte paperstock with a nice amount of substance. (Suitable for framing!) The book also includes field sketches of waterfowl. The book is beautiful but also is considered to be accurate and a joy for scienticfic minds, as well.
