It contains 435 life-size, scientifically accurate, hand-colored prints of every species of North American bird known at the time This is not only a comprehensive, cross-indexed concordance to the entire book in terms of bird names, but it also deals with variants in several plates, misnumbered plates, birds that are extinct, and mystery birds Audubon depicted that have never satisfactorily been identified In summary, this volume provides a detailed description of each of the 435 plates in the double-elephant folio as well as their original paintings, and includes image dimensions, geographical distribution of each bird pictured, and a history of the discovery of the species in addition to identification of all the plants and animals in the engravings. Each variant is listed, every error of misidentification, every misnumbering - in short, every bit of information known about each plate."
