From the Back Cover:

The Handbook of North American Birds series is a standard of reference for ornithologists and birdwatchers edited by the distinguished zoologist Ralph S. Palmer. The two latest volumes in the series, volumes 4 and 5, are devoted to diurnal birds of prey, and they synthesize information on the physical appearance and life cycles of the condor, vultures, kites, eagles, hawks, falcons, and allies that have occurred naturally in North America.
