Overview
THE GREAT BOOK OF WILDFOWL DECOYS presents decoys in the most sensible And comprehensive way: by region, with each discussed by a recognized expert on that geographic area. Thus, the entire range of decoys is covered, from Canada down the Atlantic Coast, inland along streams and rivers to Louisiana, up the Mississippi to the Great Lakes, and across to California and Oregon. Also included are chapters on European decoys, how they were made, and how to go about collecting them. In addition there's a list of public collections of decoys, a detailed bibliography, a record of top auction prices, maps of waterfowl flyways, and a thorough index. JOE ENGERS is publisher of Decoy magazine. In his extensive travels, he has attended shows and auctions where he has viewed the finest collections of decoys in the United States and Canada.
