New, Revised Edition of the
Handbook of Birds of Eastern North America
By FRANK M. CHAPMAN
Curator of Birds, American Museum of Natural History
With Plates in Colors and Black and White, by LOUIS AGASSIZ FUERTES, and Text Illustrations by TAPPAN ADNEY and ERNEST THOMPSON-SETON
The text of the preceding edition has been thoroughly revised and much of it rewritten. The nomenclature and ranges of the latest edition of the “Check-List” of the American Ornithologists’ Union have been adopted. Migration records from Oberlin, Ohio, Glen Ellyn, Ill., and Southeastern Minnesota, numerous nesting dates for every species, and many biographical references have been added; the descriptions of plumage emended to represent the great increase in our knowledge of this branch of ornithology; and, in short, the work has been enlarged to the limit imposed by true handbook size and brought fully up-to-date.
