A CONCISE HANDBOOK 



OF 



BRITISH BIRDS. 



BY 



H. KIRKE SWANN, 



Author of " The Birds of London" &c. 



PHIS is a handy and serviceable reference book on British Birds. It 

 includes descriptions of the characteristics, distribution, and habits 

 of every species on the British list, and the information, though brief, is 

 generally sufficient for identification. The classification and nomenclature 

 followed is practically that of the British Ornithologists' Union. The 

 specific names of first describers are, however, adopted, and sub-species 

 or races are distinguished by sub numbers and trinominals. Ornithologists, 

 and birddovers generally, will find Mr. Swann'S book of practical value in 

 the field, and very useful for ready reference in the study." — Nature.
