To produce this excellent identification and value guide, the author traveled all throughout the country, making this the most extensive work on the topic. It features detailed photos (including an 8 page color section) of 230 decoys and 100 calls. Accompanying the photos are detailed descriptions and current values. But this is much more than a value guide – informative chapters provide all the information on collecting and the history of decoys and calls including: history of the American bird decoy, dictionary of terminology, identifying fakes, restorations and repairs, decoy auctions…etc. This definitive work is a must for any decoy and call enthusiast.
