"John Warham has spent much of his life studying the petrels, and the first part of this splendid book summarises the characteristics of the group, genus by genus, followed by a more detailed account of their breeding biology...will prove very useful for reference...I recommend it to all serious seabird ornithologists or those wanting a good summary of petrel biology." --BRITISH BIRDS "Nobody is better qualified to do the job than John Warham....There can be no higher praise than for a reviewer to say, 'I wish I could have written that.'....This mine of information is as nearly comprehensive as anything between two hard covers can be. I cannot wait for the second volume, which will cover such topics as vocalisations, foods and feeding, and petrel conservation." --POLAR RECORD
