Reviews
In 1983 the first edition of this work was hailed as a new standard in bird finding guides. Those accolades were richly deserved. This revised edition improves on that strong foundation. . . . Coverage extends from extreme western Maryland to the Delaware marshes, south to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, westward to the Blue Ridge of Virginia and the mountains to the west. . . . A must-have book for any active birder who lives in or visits this area., Wilds doesn't merely report on the voice bird-watching spots in the region. She doesn't just give detailed descriptions of more than 300 native and migrant species that can be seen near here. Through gracefully opinionated commentary, she makes birding seem like a great way to spend an afternoon. She makes you want to try it., In addition to the considerable revisions, this new edition has the same tone, wit, and charm that made the original so enjoyable. Repeatedly, Wilds takes dry factual information such as directions and enlivens it with humorous notes and mild cautions. . . . In short, anyone who regularly watches birds around Washington, D.C., will cherish a copy., In addition to the considerable revisions, this new edition has the same tone, wit, and charm that made the original so enjoyable.

- b***b (169)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAfter two poor experiences with this seller, they exceeded my expectations with this order…hard to believe it was the same seller. The book purchased, identified in their listing as “Very Good”, was, in fact, “Like New”. The price was very fair. Shipping was slow, but that seems to be true with many things purchased in the internet. If I have a complaint, it is that the seller will not respond to specific questions about a listed item before the purchase..too many orders to do so! 🙁The Beginning or the End: How Hollywood―and America―Learned to Stop Worrying an (#387783000754)

I’m very pleased with the condition of the book and the pricing was excellent compared to other sellers online. It was packaged extremely well and arrived with no wrinkles or folded areas. I made a great purchase and I now look forward to purchasing additional items by this author from this seller. 10/10 satisfaction!The Power of A Praying Wife Omartian, Stormie paperback Used - Like New (#276668989218)
