"For the detailed history of the Organic Remains of the Wealden formation, see Mr. Mantell's highly instructive and accurate volume on the Geology of Sussex." _Buckland's Bridgewater Treatise._ MARTIN'S (P. I.) GEOLOGICAL MEMOIR ON A PART OF WESTERN SUSSEX, with some Observations upon Chalk-Basins, the Weald-Denudation, and Outliers-by-Protrusion, 4to. _large map and coloured plates_, (published at 1l) _cloth bds._ 12s 1828 MUDIE'S (ROBT.) HISTORY OF BRITISH BIRDS, or the Feathered Tribes of the British Islands, 2 vols. 8vo. _second edition, the plates beautifully coloured_, (published at 1l 8s) _extra cloth bds. elegantly gilt on the backs_, 16s 1835 "This is, without any exception, the most truly charming work on Ornithology which has hitherto appeared, from the days of Willughby downwards. Other authors describe, Mudie paints; other authors give the husk, Mudie the kernel. We most heartily concur with the opinion expressed of this work by Leigh Hunt (a kindred spirit) in the first few numbers of his right pleasant _London Journal_. The descriptions of Bewick, Pennant, Lewin, Montagu, and even Wilson, will not for an instant stand comparison with the spirit-stirring emanations of Mudie's 'living pen,' as it has well been called. We are not acquainted with any author who so felicitously unites beauty of style with strength and nerve of expression--he does not specify, he paints." _Wood's Ornithological Guide._ "The '_Feathered Tribes_' is indeed an EXQUISITE WORK, and unquestionably the best that has yet appeared on the habits of our native birds, in that it is scarcely second to those of Wilson and Audubon. Mudie is the most accurate observer of nature,--Selby excepted, and he treats not exclusively of habits--consequently the '_Feathered Tribes_' deserves a distinguished place on the shelves of the philosophic ornithologist."--_Ornithologist's Text Book._ PARKINSON'S ORGANIC REMAINS OF A FORMER WORLD, being an Examination of the Mineralized Remains of the Vegetables and Animals of the Antediluvian World, generally termed Extraneous Fossils, 3 vols. 4to. _with 54 coloured plates by Sowerby, exhibiting above 700 Fossil Remains_, (published at 10l 10s) _extra cloth bds._ 4l 4s This distinguished work is continually referred to by Dr. Buckland in his Bridgewater Treatise. "A work on the same subject, equally elegant, comprehensive, and impartial, does not exist in English; nor, as far as we know, in any other language. It is written in a plain, intelligible, and equal style, such as may, with pleasure, be perused by all classes of readers."--_British Critic._ "'Organic Remains of a Former World,' replete with interest and instruction."--_Dr. Mantell._
