Gamebirds of Southern Africa

Gamebirds have been utilized since prehistoric times for both food and sport. The 21 upland species found in southern Africa include francolins, spurfowl, quails, guineafowl and sandgrouse. Authoritative text and beautifully illustrated plates by Simon Barlow, conveying in accurate detail each species in its environment, make this a significant ornithological volume, and a work of fine art.
