The Sketch Book of British Birds is a beautifully illustrated book by Richard Bowdler Sharpe, first published in 1898. The book features over 100 color plates of British birds, including common species such as robins, blue tits, and blackbirds, as well as rarer birds like the hoopoe and the waxwing. Each plate is accompanied by a detailed description of the bird's appearance, habitat, behavior, and voice, as well as information on its distribution and migration patterns. The book also includes a comprehensive introduction to British ornithology, covering topics such as bird anatomy, classification, and migration. This classic work is a must-have for bird lovers and naturalists, and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of British birds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
