| | | Title | | Christopher Helm Identification Guides

The identification section is followed by species accounts offering extensive information on the natural history and identification of the birds. Each volume covers a different family of birds worldwide. They are not true field guides, since they are too heavy to carry in the field and are worldwide, but they are included here since advanced birders find them extremely useful. | | | Region | | WORLDWIDE | | | Classification | | Series | |
