Books
[edit]Green-Armytage made the transition from magazines to books in the early nineties with his first publication: Dudley. He is quoted as saying (on the purpose of his transition):
"Magazine-length coverage is enough for many subjects, particularly in an age of shrinking attention spans. But there are cases when a subject is large, and it is a shame to handle it superficially. It can be frustrating to be dealing with a theme that deserves book-length treatment, but instead be limited to no more coverage than a magazine has space to print.”[2]
Green-Armytage's books mainly focus on birds and creatures. The books are mostly picture books accompanied with short descriptions of topics, highlighting his photography skills.
