In bringing this work before the public two things are
essential to its success--firstly, the conviction that such
a book is needed, and secondly, that the Author is possessed
of the information required for its production. With regard
to the first of these:--The price of nearly all the standard
works on ornithology places them beyond the reach of the
young naturalist, and the information contained in the few
cheap books, which at present exist, is in many instances
scanty. The aim of the Author has been to place in the young
collector’s hand, at a popular price, a comprehensive account
of every bird which is likely to be met with in the British
Isles. The work is illustrated throughout.

“A pleasant volume of chatty anecdotes. Bright and piquant.
Mr Marmery’s book ought to be a treasure to the confirmed
diner-out.”--_The Standard (Leader)._

illustrations consist in daintily-drawn headpieces to the
various chapters. The present collection of anecdotes is
better than most.”--_Westminster Budget._
