Guy Dutson is an ornithologist and tour-leader, and is the world's leading authority on the birds of the south-west Pacific, a region in which he has described or rediscovered several species. Expeditions to and the Philippines led to the rediscovery of the Tanahjampea Monarch and and Solomons find for which he is perhaps best known, the Cebu Flowerpecker. In Dutson described Solomons new species, the Vanikoro White-eye.

This is a surprisingly sizeable field guide, almost pages, meaning only keen birders would consider packing it. Arranged Birds of Melanesia: Bismarcks excellent illustrations with brief description at the front and the main part of the text in the second half of the book. There is an introductory section on habitats and several pages of maps of all the islands, which whilst interesting are perhaps not strictly necessary for a field guide. In addition, surprisingly, despite the effective identifier of which islands each bird is found on, many of the passerine illustrations are repeated sometimes on several pages as they are presented in taxonomic order and in Birds of Melanesia: Bismarcks island group by island group way so, for instance, the Pacific Swallow illustration is repeated on six different pages. Bulk is the only downside to this guide, however.
