The Australian Bird Guide[1] (The Guide) was published by CSIRO Publishing in 2017. Written by Peter Menkhorst along with Danny Rogers and Rohan Clarke and illustrations by Jeff Davies, Peter Marsack and Kim Franklin, the book took almost eight years to produce.[2] It includes 936 birds including 160 vagrants and information on the evolution and classification of birds. Upon its release, the book was praised for its comprehensiveness, images, and text detail, however, the index and measurements were criticised. A compact version of the guide was also released in 2022.
