Hi Jan,
I have the Princeton Guide to the Birds of SE Asia by Craig Robson, who has
authored a number of books on the region. The guide is comprehensive and well
set out, but it does not have individual distribution maps for each bird.
However it does give a written description of distribution and an excellent map
in the rear cover to refer to. I've not had the pleasure of using it in field
in SE Asia , but it contains succinct and detailed information accompanying
excellent drawings for each species. I generally buy my guides from Fishpond,
see link below to the latest manifestation of this guide by Craig Robson, which
looks to be very up to date (and at a bargain price to boot):
