Book Description

About the Book 'Garden and Aviary Birds of India', a text which covers the more common birds of India in detail. A book that will greatly appeal to anyone with an interest in India's birds, this antique text constitutes a wonderful addition to collections of ornithological literature and is not to be missed by the discerning enthusiast. The chapters of this book include: 'Classification and Books of Reference'; 'Passerine Birds-The Crows, Babblers and Bulbuls'; 'Passerine Birds-Shrikes, Mynahs, Orioles, etc.'; 'Passerine Birds-Fly-catchers, Thrushes, etc.'; 'Passerine Birds-The Finches, Swallows, Sunbirds, etc.'; 'Various Non-passerine Birds-Woodpeckers, Barbets, Cuckoos, etc.'; "The Parrots and Pigeons'; and 'Management of Captive Birds'. This text was originally published in 1905, and is proudly republished here complete with a new introduction on ornithology. Frank Finn (1868-1932) was an English ornithologist whose other notable works include: 'How to Know the Indian Ducks' (1901) and 'Ornithological and Other Oddities' (1907).

Preface Anglo-Indian readers of the present work will notice that birds of prey, waders, game-birds and water fowls have been omitted therefrom, although some species of these such as the kite- are among the very commonest birds of the East, but this was done owin to exigencies of space, which compelled greater attention to some of the "smal birds." In dealing with these, also, I have endeavoured, where a choice had to be made, to deal with as many different groups as possible, rather than to particularize many species in one group, in the hope of making the book serviceable as an introduction to the study of the ornithology of our Eastern Empire.

The same considerations have guided me in the avicultural part of the work, wherein I have endeavoured to meet the requirements of the beginner in bird-keeping by indicating those species which are most easily obtained and kept. The names of imported cage-birds are distinguished by an asterisk in the letter press and by Italics in the List of Contents.
