BRITISH BIRDS
A neatly-bound volume dealing with British birds will be welcomed by nature-lovers. The book includes an interesting introduction on John Gould —- the Bird Man, and 16 short articles on birds of lake, river and stream; but perhaps the most attractive feature is the collection of delicately-tinted colour plates after the originals by John Gould. This delightful group of artistic studies will form a valuable addition to the bird-lover's library. "British Birds, on Lake. River and Stream," with 36 colour plates after the originals in "Birds of Great Britain," by John Gould, and text by Phyllis Barclay Smith. F.Z.S., M.8.0.V. (King Penguin Books.)
