Abstract
A BOYs' “Yarrell ” is a book that many ornithologists have long wished to see. More than six years ago a scheme for producing one was thought out, and Mr. Howard Saunders was invited, and consented, to aid in its production. Dîs aliter visum—the, scheme fell through for the time; but now the proposed coadjutor has been favoured by fortune, and has by himself been able to put it into operation. He is to be heartily congratulated accordingly, and not only he, but scores if not hundreds of boys—to whom the work, just begun, will afford no less delight than good instruction.
An Illustrated Manual of British Birds.
By Howard Saunders Part I., April 1888. (London: Gurney and Jackson.)
