He was notable for his expansive studies to document all types of American birds and for his detailed illustrations that depicted the birds in their natural habitats. His major work, a color-plate book entitled The Birds of America (1827–1839), is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed. Audubon identified 25 new species.\"--Wikipedia\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"VolumesOfValue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47171892805872,"sku":"2940016619767","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940016619767_p0.jpg?v=1763638698","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940016619767","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
