Description
This sparkling Tiny Folio™ edition of Audubon’s Birds of America shows all 435 of Audubon’s hand–coloured engravings, graced with an illuminating introduction by Roger Tory Peterson that puts Audubon in his ornithological and art historical context. Issued with the whole endorsement and cooperation of the Audubon Society, the lovely Baby Elephant Folio—here reproduced in a miniature, gem–like version—used to be the primary work ever to prepare Audubon’s plates in scientific order.
