Abstract
MR. KEARTON and Mr. Bentham have produced a pocket guide to British birds. The letterpress consists of a condensed summary of the usual text-book information about each species. The very small reproductions of photographs seem unlikely to be so useful for purposes of identification as the authors suggest.
