s ' The List of Game Birds is far larger than those to which English sportsmen have 

 access at home, even if they make a special pursuit of the geese and duck to be met with 

 intermittently in hard weather. India has many of our own species of duck as winter 

 visitors, and others of its own ; while our common snipe and a nearly allied eastern 

 species are common in suitable ground over the whole peninsula. 



" Mr. Frank Finn has included various species which are hardly game birds, such as 

 rails, our familiar coot and moorhen, and the Sarus crane. This liberality of outlook will 

 be appreciated by most sportsmen, who will welcome precise information on the relatives 

 and companions of the species which they make their actual quarry." — The Times.
