Translation of the publisher's description provided by the Ornithology Exchange:

 

This reference guide helps identify the most difficult European species, providing information on their identification in the field, where the instinctive perception of the silhouette, flight, behavior and calls are equally important and which, all together, constitute the "jizz", the general shape and the overall impression of the bird. The illustrations used to compare the characteristics of pairs or groups of species with identification difficulties. This guide also provides accurate data on the current status of the species in France, including breeding, migratory, casual, and vagrant species. Features of the book include:

• Updated criteria for identification of the most difficult to identify European species.
  
• The names used follow the recommendations of the Commission de l'avifaune française.
  
• A guide for amateur and experienced birders.
