AN 



ILLUSTRATED MANUAL 



OF 



BRITISH BIRDS. 



BY HOWARD SAUNDERS, F.L.S., F.Z.8., o. 



Editor of the Third and Fourth Volumes of the Fourth Edition of 

 " YarrelFs History of British Birds." 



" It would be difficult to give a better condensation of 

 facts in fewer lines than has been contrived by Mr. 

 Saunders. " Zoologist. 



"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." Athenceum. 



" Excellent alike in style and matter, it ought to be in 

 the hands of every lover of birds, and should take the place 

 of several inferior books on the subject now before the 

 public." Annals of Natural History. 



"It is scarcely necessary to inform those who are 

 acquainted with the previous work of the author, that the 

 information is not only valuable from its correctness, but 

 that it is brought up to the present date." Field.
