Paul,

It is all to do with copyright law. In the Americas, Princeton has the publishing rights for the Americas, Helm has UK & Europe and New Holland has Asia-Pacific. I think New Holland has the main rights.

Cheers,

Carl Clifford

I have what appears to the same book published as the 'New Holland Field
Guide to Birds of SEA'.

Another nom de plume, as it were.

The Princeton Guides are also published under the Helm Field Guides cover -
worth checking the prices out for both as the content is identical.

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):
