Book Reviews of National Geographic Complete Birds of North America (National Geographic)

Book Review: Excellent content, unacceptale binding.
Summary: 1 Stars

This book has excellent content, but the first printing had the stiff binding that wouldn't allow the book to open fully, making it very difficult to read. The second printing has a more flexible spine where the pages are just stuck to it. After four months of very casual use, the pages began falling out. This is the poorest bound book that I have ever seen.
