Some early reviews on the Breeding Birds of Solano County:


This newest edition to the family of California breeding bird atlas books imparts a wealth of knowledge gleaned from the atlas field work and the scientific literature. The information about species' habitats and distribution with regional and historical contexts is relevant (no fluff) and readily accessible in this beautifully formatted book. This is a book for the general public as well as for the advanced and beginning birders. --John Sterling, California Ornithologist and founder of Sterling Wildlife Biology.

...If there is another Breeding Bird atlas anywhere in this country that can compete with this one I would like to see it. It is a feast for the eyes, illustrated with a large number of bird and habitat photos contributed by many local photographers selected by a highly skilled editorial team and arranged among the text in such a way as to bring to life the beautifully written species accounts and the descriptions of the varied habitats of this diverse county... It is also a highly informative book, exhaustively researched (see the extensive bibliography), clearly written, ... an important baseline document for future generations about the state of the avian world in our area at the beginning of the 21st century. --Manfred Kusch
