"The appearance of a general work on birds by an ornithologist of the 

 long experience of Professor Newton may well be regarded as marking an 

 epoch in the science of which it treats. It is the best book of its kind which 

 has yet appeared." Natural Science.

 ject in any language." Nature Notes.
