This well-preserved first printing softcover edition is in near fine condition. The pages are tight and unmarked, and the book remains firm and square. There is a library stamp on the page preceding the title page. Published by Princeton University Press in 2000, this book provides insights into various birdwatching sites, spanning from Iceland and across Europe to Ussuriland in southeast Russia. Nigel Wheatley, a professional conservationist and ornithological consultant, has traveled extensively in search of birds and has authored several other Where to Watch bird guides published by Princeton University Press. Where to Watch Birds in Europe and Russia by Nigel Wheatley is now out of print.
