A variety of ornithologists contribute chapters on their specialised subjects for this attractive book produced and edited by Kenneth Newman who is famous for his bird paintings and related books.

The species are found under chapter heading like e.g. Migratory Birds, Diurnal Birds Of Prey, Birds Of The Night, Birds Of The Inland Waters, of the Indigenous Forests, of the Bushveld and Woodlands, of the Open Veld, of the Deserts, of the Coasts and Offshore Waters.
There are short biographies of the contributing authors D. Blaker, C.C.H. Elliott, P.G.H. Frost, R.A.C. Jensen, A.C. Kemp, G.L. Maclean, P. Le S. Milstein, T.B. Oatley, W.R. Siegfried, P.
