Book Description
Excerpt from Catalogue of the Cases of Birds in the Dyke Road Museum, Brighton: Giving a Few Descriptive Notes, and the Localities in Which the Specimens Were Obtained As a Catalogue does not need a Preface, I will simply state, by way of introduction, that all scientific arrangement has been given up as hopeless in a collection where the chief object has been to endeavour to represent the birds in situations somewhat similar to those in which they were obtained; many of the cases, indeed, being copied from sketches taken on the actual spots where the birds themselves were shot. The few notes and facts I have recorded are solely the result of personal observation, and with two or three exceptions (all noted), not a book of reference has been opened. Those who expect to find a long list of rarities will, I am afraid, be sadly disappointed, as, in order to avoid exhibiting or describing a specimen with which I was only acquainted by hearsay, I have restricted the collection entirely to birds that have fallen to my own gun during various excursions in the British Islands. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.
