"A duel for the winning bird"; described by the" Daily Mail" yesterday in a two page spread.(Having shown a series of photos of various "twitches", the latest being the White-crowned Sparrow in Cley, Norfolk.)
Has anyone read it and is it worth ordering?



*Concerns rivalry between LGRE and Adrian Riley in 2002 to become champion year-lister in GB.

"It chronicles his (Riley's) epic battle to become the champion year lister for 2002 - the birdwatcher who sees most species in a single calendar year - and beat his bitter rival, Lee Evans, to the prized title. It was a struggle that would threaten his sanity."..(!!!)
