Flexi-binding. Condizione: New. The first dedicated field guide to Honduras, featuring 1,000 illustrations on 73 color plates. The book also illustrates the majority of the migratory species. Along with the standard species accounts the book has a lengthy chapter 'Where to Find Birds in Honduras'. There are numerous Tables toward the end of the book, one of which has an extensive list of botanical names for nectar sources that hummingbirds utilize and each species of hummingbird observed for each flower. A unique feature is a large pull-out map approx. 16 x 25 in. One side illustrates a basic layout of ecosystems. The other side is labeled 'Important Bird Sites in Honduras which features over 200 points of interest throughout the country. These GPS-coded marker numbers are embedded in the text throughout most of the book and are all laid out in a separate Table. This layout means that all the numbers can be easily cross-referenced. This book covers over 98% of the birds of the surrounding countries of Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize and Nicaragua; all countries where no book exists. Robert Gallardo is a professional bird guide in Honduras and has led tours for 15 years. The book is illustrated by John Sill, Michael DiGiorgio, and Ian Griffiths.

These three tales are cerebral and semi-ambivalent in nature, cosmic in tone, and lumber along in a wide open sea of cloaked and disturbed tranquility. A calm well natured other-worldly milieu embodies these timeless cautionary scenarios of a subtly encroaching menace upon humanity. Conceived at a time prior the advent of personal computing, when computational machines nearly just still filled up large rooms with less capabilities than are now - decades into the 21st century - carried in the pockets or skin of the less than average humans being navigated by them. Some have speculated that these futuristic dystopian tales are forms of a predictive template for human annihilation through alien intervention and computer based control aka artificial intelligence. The 1970's were a period of creative ferment in the field of science fiction. These three authors were among the most highly regarded of the newer talents belonging unarguably to the literary generation of the 1970's. Aside from one story by Dozois that appeared in 1966, none of their work saw print professionally before 1970. "They are still young. yet they are not novices; as evidence of this volume shows, their writing is skillful, evocative, thoughtful, and approaching profound." "And Us, Too, I Guess," by Geo. Alec Effinger: "It saddened Paul. He loved his pet mollies, and now every single one of them was dead. Then he discovered that across the world the entire species of this small tropical fish had suddenly and inexplicably perished - had become extinct on that same Sunday. That was how it began." "Chains of the Sea," by Gardner R. Dozois: "Tommy, as far as he knew, was the only one who could speak with, or even see, the Other People. He dared not tell anyone about them. At last, from his fear and terrible alienation, he did cry out a warning to the other children, but it wasn't heard. It was too late." "The Shrine of Sebastian," by Gordon Eklund: "Pope Julian traveled across the devastated land in confusion and despair. On this pilgrimage he had taken with him the body of his wife, his predecessor to the papacy, and Andrew, a robot. When Julian reached the Shrine of Sebastian to pit his soul against the devil-saint, he learned from Andrew a strange truth about himself." Robert Silverberg, a former president of the Science Fiction Writers of America, has won two Hugo Awards and in 1970 received the Nebula Award for the best science-fiction short story of the year. Some of his acclaimed titles include: 'Worlds of Maybe; Mind to Mind; The Science Fiction Bestiary; Beyond Control; Deep Space; The Day the Sun Stood Still; and, Time of the Great Freeze".
