AN ILLUSTRATED 



Manual of British Birds 



By HOWARD SAUNDERS, F.L.S., F.Z.S., &c. 



" Perhaps the question most frequently put to a zoologist by a lay friend is, 

 'What is a really good book on British Birds that is not too expensive?' and 

 the question has been one that has been found extremely difficult to answer. 

 Mr Saunders deserves our thanks for having taken this difficulty out of our 

 way." — A thenceum. 



" Excellent alike in style and matter, it ought to be in the hands of every 

 lover of birds." — Annals of Natural History. 



" It would be difficult to give a better condensation of facts in fewer 

 lines. " — Zoologist. 



"The whole work forms the most concise and at the same time trustworthy 

 book on birds of a single region that has ever been written." — Science Gossip.
