" Though written less in the spirit of exact science than with the freedom of 

 lovo and old acquaintance, yet I have in no instance taken liberties with facts," 

 . . . (Extr. from Preface.) It is a delightful book, mainly about birds of North 

 America, and " in fact," as the author claims, "is a careful and conscientious 

 record of actual observations and experiences, and is true as it stands written, 

 every word of it." There is at least one later edition.

This is not the original edition, which appeared much earlier. The defective 

 title is abstracted from the Zool. Rec. The treatise is one of the best and most 

 nearly scientific of the sporting books; more than half the work is given to 

 birds, and a large number of species, particularly Gallince, Grallce, and Anseres, 

 are described and figured, with notes on their habits, and instructions for their 

 destruction.
