Introduction by Roger Tory Peterson. "This is the first book to be devoted to Robert Bateman's work. The eighty-two colour plates offer breathtaking opportunity for the reader to enjoy the tremendous scope of the paintings, from a tiny sparrow in a richly detailed stream bank to a massive rhinoceros head; from an infinitely delicate heron to a majestic vista of elk dwarfed by the Rocky Mountains. In the accompanying commentary Bateman acts as guide to his own paintings, recalling encounters with wildlife subjects and pointing out unexpected features and details." 178p. Signed on title page. Tipped in on ffep is a presentation sheet ''In recognition of Distinctive Achievement during 1985" sponsored by GM /SMG. NOTE : This is a large format[31x28x2.5cm] VERY heavy volume Book
