Peter Grant's book is an enlarged and much revised version of his series on gull identification. As well as extensive textual improvements, most of the drawings have been revised and over 170 new photographs have been added. The 23 species of Palearctic gulls (more than half the world total) have been separated into five groups to bring together species with similar characters, particularly in immature plumages. Many of the problems of gull identification stem from the complexities of such plumages, and a major part of the book's text, drawings, and photographs concentrates on this aspect. In addition to the many identification drawings and vignettes by Peter Grant, there is a world distribution map for each species and a 128-page section of 376 photographs. Clean, no marks, SIGNED First Edition hardcover, 1982, from an avid birdwatcher's collection. Dust jacket is clean with very light wear along edges, but book comes with a protective Mylar cover to prevent any future wear. Flap is not clipped. Dark gray cover is clean with gold graphics and lettering on spine. Corners are still sharp. First title page has an affixed bookplate of original owner. Author's 1983 inscription and signature appear on title page. Book contains black and white photos throughout. No marked, creased, or torn pages. A very good copy.
