Extinct Birds of Hawaiʻi: New Edition - Discover Rare Species & Conservation Efforts | Perfect for Bird Lovers, History Buffs & Educators

Extinct Birds of Hawaii captures the vanishing world of unique bird species that has slipped away in the Islands mostly due to human frivolity and unconcern. Richly illustrated, including paintings by Julian P. Hume (many painted specifically for this volume), it enables us to vicariously enjoy avian life unique to Hawai‘i that exists no longer.

Extinct Birds of Hawai‘i also sends a powerful message: Although Hawaii is well-known for its unique scenic beauty and its fascinating native flora, fauna, bird and marine life, it is also called the extinction capital of the world.

This new edition includes many new paintings, photographs, charts, and updates on all of the recently extinct species.
