 Practically speaking, this is the first popular 

 folume of ornithology ever issued from the press; 

 a work which goes far to demonstrate that scien- 

 tific accuracy may be as easily maintained in 

 English as m Greek or Latin. Follows the 

 game birds all over the continent and gives a 

 glossary of all the local names in popular use. 

 Illustrated with admirable portraits from the 

 pencil of Mr. Edwin Shepard of the Academy of 

 Natural Sciences, Philadelphia, which, with the 

 clear descriptions in the text, will enable any

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS: 



It is the first, so far as we know _ is of 

 books of which the need is felt la ii\ 3iy apart- 

 ment of natural history.— Troy Press. 



The book should find its way to a choice place 

 in every sportsman's library.— Chicago Inter- 

 Ocean. 



I would much rather know what this book tells 

 me, the various names by which the people call 

 a bird, than the Latin, Greek or Hebrew name 

 which science gave him for the sake of catalogu- 

 ing him. * * * It is more value to me to have 

 a description of a bird in plain English which I 

 understand than in scientific language which I 

 do not understand.— TP., in Journal of Commerce.
