Popular Handbook Of Indian Birds

Hugh Whistler

Revised and enlarged by Norman B. Kinnear

Illustrations: H. Gronvold, Roland Green

Gurney and Jackson

4th edition

1949

From the preface:

The Popular Handbook of Indian Birds was first published in 1928, followed by a second edition in 1935, and a third in 1941. This last edition was becoming exhausted when the author died, and Mrs Whistler asked me to prepare this new edition. Mr B. B. Osmaston, who has such a wide knowledge of Indian birds and their habits, has given very great assistance and, in addition, several ornithologists in India, Mr Salim Ali, Mr C. M. Inglis, Mr W. H. Mathews, and the Rev. F. S. Briggs, sent to Mrs Whistler their notes and suggestions which, as far as possible, have been incorporated. In the original edition 250 birds were described, and in each succeeding issue the number was increased. In the present edition 7 more species have been added, and 12 referred to in the text. There is also one new coloured plate and five text figures all of which are the work of Mr Roland Green.
