From the Back Cover
There is a place on earth where time stands still-where nature and
religion have combined to turn a tiny Buddhist kingdom into the world's last
Shangri-La. Locked between Tibet and India, Bhutan is the jewel of the
Himalayas. To the north of the kingdom, towering virgin peaks rise to 25,000
feet. Beneath steep glacial walls, alpine highlands fall to misty forests.
Mountain streams cut through gorges on their way down to warmer valleys and wide
marshes in the heart of the kingdom. One distinct landscape drops to the next
before finally descending to the jungle and grasslands of the southern plains.
For the people who have adapted to this domain of extremes, Bhutan is a
Living Eden where respect for life, in all its many incarnations, endures like
the land itself.

Most guidebooks for birders are very general in their descriptions of the
birds. "Birds of Bhutan" tells you when and where in the country you
can view them. Includes endangered and endemic species. Beautifully detailed
showing all varieties, this book is Written very specifically about Bhutan Birds
buts still gives information about where in Asia these birds range. This Book is
a must have!
