 BOOK REVIEW: Sean McKeown's "A Field Guide to the Reptiles and Amphibians of the Hawaiian Islands"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
I was relatively well prepared for this event since I had just purchased a copy of Sean McKeown's book, so I could calculate right away that Dr. Fern Duvall's discovery had increased the number of alien amphibian species in Hawaii from 5 to 7, and the number on Maui from 3 to 5.
Author Sean McKeown does indeed recognize that a very few species (his "island supertramp" species) of reptiles and amphibians would be or are bad for Hawaii.
Strangely, McKeown just doesn't seem to grasp the concept that generalist species of tree frogs are likely to undergo population explosions in island ecosystems which are lacking in native tree frogs.

 Living Tradition CD review of Gay McKeown - Irish Piping Tradition
His sons, Conor and Sean McKeown also feature on the album, who could both easily amaze any listener, piper or non-piper, with their maturity and talent.
But that doesn't mean Gay McKeown is unable to create such a wholesome sound when playing solo, for in the stirring slow air "Lord Mayo", the pipes are ringing with confidence, with smooth, easy flows on notes and octaves, and especially the interesting bass notes on the regulators.
Gay McKeown certainly knows his stuff, judging not only from his piping skill, but also his knowledge of tunes, the origins, and also the personal memories associated with them; all provided on the sleeve notes.
