Fra forlagets hjemmeside:

This innovative guide will be an essential addition to
the library of any serious birder. It accurately describes every key detail of
every plumage of all 1,000 species that have ever occurred in Britain, Europe,
North Africa and the Middle East – the region known to all keen birdwatchers as
the Western Palearctic. Its level of detail is unprecedented for a book of this
size, and it will be sought after by all bird enthusiasts.

A large number of existing bird field guides cover
Europe and the Western Palearctic. This, however, is a guide with a difference.
It has no colour plates or illustrations, but instead its unique selling point
is that for every species the detailed text lists the key characters of each
recognizable plumage, including male, female, immature, juvenile, all subspecies
and all other variations. This level of detail includes, for example, all eleven
forms of ‘Canada goose’ and all nine forms of ‘yellow wagtail’ known in the
region. In the past such in-depth detail has only been available in huge
multi-volume tomes such as Birds of the Western Palearctic. The Advanced Bird ID
Guide enables birders to take this information into the field for the first
time. 

The detailed yet concise nature of the guide means that
the original Dutch edition of this title became an instant classic when it was
published in 2002. UK birders who know of the Dutch edition have been eagerly
awaiting an English-language version for many years, so this is an exciting
opportunity for New Holland in terms of publishing a cutting-edge bird book.

The book will be endorsed by the renowned journal
British Birds, which has been running for more than 100 years and which has a
dedicated and enthusiastic readership.
