ResumoWE have not hitherto had an adequate bibliography of British ornithology, for the one by Elliott Coues begun thirty-six years ago was never, we believe, completed, and, excellent as was the first instalment so far as it went, it is, of course, now out of date. The bibliography upon which Major Mullens (who has already done work which may be considered as the basis of the present book) and Mr. Swann have embarked is of an ambitious and comprehensive nature. The aim of the authors has been to give a biographical account of each author of a separately-published work, followed by a bibliography of their works and of their papers contributed to journals bearing on British ornithology. Collations are given and spaced titles of books published before 1850; critical notes also on many books are included.
