Press Opinions. 



AUK: — " . . . We cong-atulate the authors of the British Hand-List upon the character 

 of their work, and upon the great strides that they have made towards uniformity of 

 nomenclature. Let us hope that all British ornithologists will hearken to the plea that 

 they make and adopt the names here set forth in all future writings upon British Birds." 



SPECTATOR : — " . . . The result however is a work on British Birds which should be 

 not only on the shelves, but constantly in the hands of every British ornithologist. 

 Excellent, careful, accurate, laborious and much needed piece of truly scientific work." 



jLASGOW NATURALIST :— " . . . There is proof of great care in dealing with 

 the facts of distribution. The work is indeed remarkably successful in this particular."
