Summary: Munias and Mannikins
Review: This is a first class effort to arrange all the finches commonly known as Munias and Mannikins. The text is very well researched and the information contained is well written and easily understood. The crowning glory of this book is the paintings of all the known Munias and Mannikins, including the subspecies. The author has studied the majority of the described birds in their native habitiat and can, therefore speak with authority on some of the fascinating habits of these wonderful little birds. This book is worth the price, for the paintings and drawings alone. I feel certain that this fine book will become a classic reference for this group of finches for many years to come.
