This is the first volume in a series of selections of natural history prints from around the world and celebrates the achievements of bird artists over two centuries. The 60 plates are arranged chronologically and range from Eleazar Albin's "Hoopoe", from the early 19th century, through aquatints from Audubon's "Birds of America" and Edward Lear's colourful "Parrots" some hundred years later, to the work of 20th-century artists such as Archibald Thorburn and George Lodge. The author has written many books and articles, both scientific and popular, on natural history topics.
