Toucans of the Americas/Tucanos das Americas

Years ago I was mesmerised by the sumptuous, leather bound facsimile of John Gould’s Monograph of the Ramphastidae or Family of Toucans, but the price tag of £1200 put it somewhat beyond my means. But now there is Toucans of the Americas/Tucanos das Americas which, although lacking the leather and enormous size of the facsimile, is equally as beautiful, informative – and I can afford it! Thank you Herculano Alvarenga and Eduardo Brettas, for producing such a glorious book.
