"I have formed no system, I have followed no systematist, I have drawn np no nomen- 

 clature of shapes or of colours and I have not counted the feathers, or the scales or retic- 

 ulations on the tarsi, of a single bird. . . . My object ... is simply, to entice my fellow 

 Britons, ..." etc.

These illustrations originally appeared in 19 parts, in two series, 1821-1834 : First series, 

 l>and Birds, 8 parts ; second series, Water Birds, 11 parts. They came out at intervals of 

 about six months, during the years specified. In 1834, on their completion, they were made 

 up in 2 vols., and furnished with permanent title-page, differing entirely from the above, 

 which is a now title furnished with Bohn's reissue of this date. See 1821-34, 1825, 1825-33, 

 1833-4, and 1834, Selby, P. J. 

 The series ostensibly consists of 65 + 4 + 103 = 172 plates ; but, by actual count, in the 

 copj- examined, there are 21 interpolated plates in vol. i, and 34 interpolated plates in voL 

 ii ; making 172 + 55 = 227 ; but there are 8 plates missing from the numeration in vol ii, 

 and 1 from that of vol. 1, leaving 218 as the actual number. I find the work cited as of 

 "228" plates, of 383 figures.
