"In a birding world that celebrates identification, there are surprisingly few articles and books on gull identification. So, we need to lift a glass to 2018, a year that has given us <i>Gulls of the World: A Photographic Field Guide </i>by Klaus Malling Olsen and <i>Gulls Simplified: A Comparative Approach to Identification </i>by Pete Dunne and Kevin T. Karlson. . . . [T]he bar here is high, there are expectations of excellent writing, high-quality photographs, a friendly yet educational approach, and a high level of expertise. . . . And, yes, they succeed on all points."<b>---Donna Schulman, <i>10,000 Birds Book Review</i></b>
"<p>These images teamed with the friendly style of writing make you want to read and study every<br />corner of this book, every paragraph, every caption and to top off the enjoyment – a quiz! Oh yes,<br />this book has a photographic quiz at the back, and it is great fun – really!</p>"<b>---Sarah Harris, <i>British Trust for Ornithology</i></b>
"The overall design of the book is excellent and the photographs are the best collection I’ve seen. . . . The combination of simple approach, brilliant photos and the readable style encourages all birders to dip their toes into the wonderful world of gulls!"<b>---Dawn Balmer, <i>British Birds</i></b>
"[This book may] finally [get] you into gulls."<b>---John Miles, <i>Birdwatching Magazine</i></b>
