Birds Throughout the World

Very Good used hardcover in dust jacket. Slight foxing to top edge of pages. Shelf wear to DJ, with slight creasing and fading.

The author, who is an expert in the field of ornithology, vividly describes how birds in the course of millions of years have spread all over the globe by their capability to fly. He discusses and describes the realm of birds on the basis of zoo-geographical regions: the Ethiopian, Oriental, Australian, Neotropical, and Antarctica regions.
