Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Ibis, 1879, Vol. 3: A Quarterly Journal of Ornithology
Judging from the recent announcements of new Bird-books, and the vigour with which others already started are continued, it would appear that the de pression now generally supposed to be everywhere prevalent has not affected our favourite Science. On the contrary, ornithological work increases apace; and, as will be seen from the pages of this year's volume, though some of our old contributors may have relaxed their efforts to assist us, others have come forward from nearly every part of the world.
