POPULAR BRITISH ORNITHOLOGY; 



COMPRISING 



A familiar and technical description of the Birds of the British Isles. 



By P. H. GOSSE, 



Author of ' The Ocean, 5 ' The Birds of Jamaica,' &c. 



In twelve chapters, each being the Ornithological lesson for the month. 



" Goes over every month of the year, figures the birds naturally in painted 

 colours, describes them and their habits well, and is a capital manual for 

 youthful naturalists." Literary Gazette. 



" To render the subject of ornithology clear, and its study attractive, has 

 been the great aim of the author of this beautiful little volume. It contains 

 descriptions of all our British birds, with the exception of those which may 

 be considered in the light of stragglers, and which are not likely to fall in the 

 way of the young naturalist, for whose use this work is intended. It is em- 

 bellished by upwards of 70 plates of British birds beautifully coloured." 

 Morning Herald. 



" We can answer for this compact and elegant little volume being beau- 

 tifully got up, and written in a manner likely to attract the interest of the 

 youthful student." Globe. 



" This was a book much wanted, and will prove a boon of no common 

 value, containing, as it does, the names, descriptions, and habits of all the 

 British birds. It is handsomely got up, and ought to find a place on the 

 shelves of every book-case." Mirror. 



In one vol. royal 16mo, with twenty plates of figures. Price 7*. plain ; 

 10,y. 6 d. coloured.
