On an April day in 1953, renowned American naturalist, author, and illustrator Roger Tory Peterson met his British friend James Fisher, an authority on seabirds, in Newfoundland. There they began a strenuous and thrilling hundred-day field trip around the edge of the continent. Part travelogue, part epic natural adventure, their richly illustrated record is "the superlatively good product of ideal circumstances" (Chicago Sunday Tribune).

This description of a year long bird quest is probably the first "big year" published.
Not only is t interesting reading, it represents a description of America and its bird diversity and abundance back when they were different than today.
It provides an insight to where our lifestyles were back than, and of our perceptions of diversity and species occurrences which are so different now. (
