Near fine used hardcover in dust jacket. The 200-mile stretch of Colorado River that forms the boundary between Arizona and California is an avifaunally rich area marked by an arid climate and isolation from other vegetated regions; consequently, it is a unique laboratory for studies of floral and faunal distributions and geographic variation in birds. The study of four hundred species provides a solid foundation for understanding how the ecological needs of the birds have been affected over the past century by human use of the river and surrounding lands. The bulk of the book is devoted to individual species accounts. "A tremendous amount of information is included in this book for banders, birders, and people working to restore the 'Nile of the American Southwest.'" â??North American Bird Bander "This work is a great achievment." â??Birding.
