Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Birds of New England and Adjacent States: Containing Descriptions of the Birds of New England, and Adjoining States and Provinces, Arranged by a Long-Approved Classification and Nomenclature; Together With a History of Their Habits, Times of Arrival and Departure, and a Careful and Accurate Descr In presenting this volume to the public, I would say that my chief aim in its preparation has been to supply the great demand for some work that might be accessible to all, both in consequence of its moderate price and its plain, untechnical language. The want of such a volume is keenly appreciated by our students in this interesting branch of natural history; and, as all the editions of the valuable and popular works of Wilson and Nuttall are out of print, it has long been almost entirely unsupplied. I have been able, from my own observations, to correct some important errors that have been published as to the breeding habits of different species, and have added, probably, a few new facts to our knowledge respecting those of others; but I must apologize for being obliged, in a great many cases, to use the observations of others for facts which I have had no opportunity of ascertaining myself.
