Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Birds of South Africa
I have to thank all the kind friends who have assisted me in the production of the present volume, and I must mention more particularly the names of Captain Shelley, Mr. J. H. Gurney, Mr. J. E. Harting, Mr. Howard Saunders and Canon Tristram, who by the loan Of specimens, or by actual assistance in the revision of certain groups of birds of which they possess special knowledge, have considerably lightened the labour of preparing the second edition of the Birds of South Africa.
