More About This Book

Overview

John Audubon's legendary The Birds of America. This is Volume 1, featuring restored versions of Plates 1-145. While this eBook should work with any Nook, or Nook App, it is recommended for hand held devices with color screens. This volume includes Audubon’s famous depictions of the White-headed Eagle (Bald Eagle), Fish Osprey, Raven, Pileated Woodpecker, the extinct Passenger Pigeon, and more than 100 others.

Note 1: This is an updated version formatted to fit the Nook Color/Nook Tablet’s screen resolution exactly. This corrects an error that made the images appear cropped in the original version. If you purchased this book prior to February 10, 2012, and have a Nook reading device, it is recommended that you download this version.

Note 2: The Nook format and 'Get a free sample' device aren't well equipped to deal with picture books. For some reason it lists this 145 plate (page) book as '0' pages long, and a 'sample' delivers none of the pictures and only two paragraphs of text. If you want some evidence this is a substantial work look at the file size, which is correct.

    Very Disappointing!

    Let's just say Mr. Audubon would turn in his grave if he knew that his life's work is being depicted as "incorrectly cropped" images. A note to the maker of this potentially awesome Nook Book...please redo this book (vol 2-3 as well).

    Bird shot

    It appears that the folio pages have been cropped. You will only see, for example, one and a half Great Horned Owls...
