Sketches of Bird Life - From Twenty Years Observation of Their Haunts and Habits - With Illustrations by Wolf, C. Whymper, Keulemans, and Thorburn - James Edmund Harting

This vintage book contains a fantastic guide to bird watching by James E. Harting. Based on twenty years of observation, it contains a wealth of useful and interesting information only a seasoned expert in the field could hope to impart to the curious enthusiast. Highly recommend for English birdwatchers and collectors of vintage bird watching literature. Contents include: "The Kestrel", "The Short-Eared Owl", "The Thrush", "The Blackbird", "The Robin", "The Fieldfare", "The Blackcap", "The Whitethroat", "The Garden Warbler", "The Great Titmouse", "The Blue Titmouse", "The Coal Titmouse", "The Crested Titmouse", etc. James Edmund Fotheringham Harting (1841 - 1928) was an English ornithologist and naturalist. Other notable works by this author include: "The Birds of Middlesex" (1866), "Rambles in Search of Shells" (1876), and "Ostriches and Ostrich Farming" (1877). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
