8vo; original grey cloth, a little rubbed, and bumped at extremities; no dustwrapper; pp. xiv + 227, incl. index; illustrated with engravings by Denys Watkins-Pitchford; some light foxing to endpapers. Good condition. "Dr Walmsley, the late author of this book, had for many years spent his leisure time in observing birds, especially natives and visitors to Cornwall, and making detailed notes of his observations. . . . What follows . . . is not a scientific bird-manual, although some of the detailed observations of rarer species should be of interest to the specialist; it is a study of some 150 birds to be found in the British Isles by a highly imaginative writer."
