Description:
First published in 1797, Thomas Bewick’s British Birds has become a classic natural history text. Bewick’s beautifully detailed woodcuts are far more than scientific records; each beady eye and jaunty pose reveals the artist’s deep love of birds. This paperback edition includes more than 180 bird species from garden birds such as blackbirds and robins, to birds of prey like the osprey and red kite, and waders and waterbirds. Each entry is illustrated with an engraving as well as descriptions of how the bird lives.
