Excerpt from Handbook of Field and General Ornithology: A Manual of the Structure and Classification of Birds, With Instructions for Collecting and Preserving Specimens
Part I., entitled Field Ornithology, contains the necessary instructions for the observation and collection of birds in the field, and for the preparation and preservation of specimens for scientific study in the cabinet.
Part II., entitled General Ornithology, is a technical treatise on the classification, the zoological characters, and the anatomical structure of the class of Birds, in which the examples cited in illustration of the principles of Ornithology have for the most part been redrawn by the author from British instead of American birds.
