ROUGH NOTES ON THE BIRDS OBSERVED 



Durinri 25 years' Shooilnr/ and CoIlectin(/ 



IN THE BRITISH ISLANDS. 



By E. T. booth. 



With Plates from Drawings by E. Neale, taken from Specimens in the Author's possession. 



" Few ornithologists have a better personal acquaintance with British Birds than 

 Mr. E. T. Bootli, and we are all frlad to have the results of his observations, accompanied, 

 us they are, by Mr. Neale's life-like illustrations. These are taken entirely from subjects in 

 JMr. Ifootli's own well-kuown collection at Brigliton, where every bird now figured may be 

 examined. No visitor to Brijrhtou who cares the least for ornithology should omit to visit 

 Mr. Booth's Bird-gallery. Mr. Booth's observations, based entirely upon his personal ex- 

 perience, cannot fail to be valuable ; and his remarks upon the geographical distribution of 

 many of the species, as regards the British Islands, are of considerable interest. Mr. Booth's 

 letterpress is excellent re iding, and the artic-les on the species which are not fiflfured, and 

 which are too numerous for mention, are quite as interesting as the others.'' — The Ihis.

With NOTES ON THEIR HABITS, by W. H. HUDSON, C.M.Z.S. 

 (late of Buenos Ayres). 



CONTAINING 20 HAND-COLOURED PLATES. 



" Dr. Sclater and Mr. Hudson have combined thair forces to produce one of the best 

 books ever written on South American Ornithology. Each is a master of his own portion 

 of the subject, for no one is better acquainted -n-ith Keotropical Ornithology than 

 Br. Sclater, and Mr. Hudson has been known for many years as one of the best living 

 observers of the habits of birds in the field. The scheme of the book, therefore, leaves 

 nothing to be desired, and the whole of the ' get up,' as regards paper, print, and 

 illustrations, renders it as good as it is possible to be, and reflects the greatest credit on 

 the publisher." — X(i/nre.

" Mr. Poyntin^s egg-pictures are by far the best since Hewitson." — LonD Lilforp 

 (President of the British Ornithologists' Union). 



" Mr. Poynting's plates are, Vinthout e.xception, the very best of any that have 

 bitlierto been published liere or on the Continent on oology, and I most sincerely wish- 

 him success, and trust that he may continue the work until he has made it a complete 

 work on British Oology.'' — II. E. iJnKSSKn (.\utlior of the ' Birds of Europe,' &c., &c.).
