Abstract
ANOTHER gorgeous volume on Britain's birds and their nests! Truly of the making of books on this subject there seems no end. Happy the publishers, and authors we presume, supported by a public with so insatiable an appetite for British ornithology. We could exhaust the space at our disposal with a mere list of the books and serials on this subject which are issuing or have issued from the press within the past two years and have come under notice in these pages. The name on the title-page of a gifted professor in a great northern university, as introducer of his son as author has given special zest to the perusal of this particular volume.
Britain's Birds and their Nests.
Described by A. Landsborough Thomson., with introduction by Prof. J. A. Thomson. 132 drawings in colour by G. Rankin. Pp. xxviii + 340. (London: W. and R. Chambers, Ltd., 1910.)
