New Zealand’s Extinct Birds.

Brian Gill and Paul Martinson.

An account of 57 species of extinct birds in New Zealand. Some disappeared in the geologically distant past, but most became extinct in the last eight hundred years due to human impact. The fine paintings by Martinson illustrate 25 of the birds, in some cases they are conjectural, but informed by careful study of all the available evidence. Printed on heavy art paper.
