"I've always known Lake Merritt as a great place to look for birds, not knowing that it was originally designated as a bird sanctuary over 150 years agothe first wildlife refuge in the country!

"It's not only the technical accuracy of the illustrations that make them so remarkable [ ] it is the way they are presented that conveys the more important lessons to both interested bird watchers as well as to any aspiring illustrators studying the book for the improvement of their own craft.
