From the dust jacket: "John James Audubon's double-elephant folio BIRDS OF AMERICA (1827-38) is probably the most valuable American book. It contains 435 life-size, scientifically accurate, hand-colored prints of every species of North American bird known at the time This is not only a comprehensive, cross-indexed concordance to the entire book in terms of bird names, but it also deals with variants in several plates, misnumbered plates, birds that are extinct, and mystery birds Audubon depicted that have never satisfactorily been identified In summary, this volume provides a detailed description of each of the 435 plates in the double-elephant folio as well as their original paintings, and includes image dimensions, geographical distribution of each bird pictured, and a history of the discovery of the species in addition to identification of all the plants and animals in the engravings. Each variant is listed, every error of misidentification, every misnumbering - in short, every bit of information known about each plate."

Etching. Condición: Very Good. First. London: Robert Havell. Very Good. 1836. First. Etching. Engraving with etching, aquatint and hand-coloring on J Whatman hand-made paper watermarked 1836. Unusually wide, untrimmed margins showing the pulls from the binder's signatures on the left margin and the original gilt to the top edge. "I have found this species of Jay breeding in the State of Maine, where many individuals belonging to it reside the whole year, and where in fact so many as fifteen or twenty may be seen in the course of a day by a diligent person anxious to procure them. In the winter, their numbers are constantly augmented by those which repair to that country from places farther north. They advance to the southward as far as the upper parts of the State of New York. Now, to my eye, the Canada Jay is as elegant in its movements, whether perched or on wing, as any other of our Jays, although its apparel is certainly very homely. It is joyous and lively at all times, even when, pushed by extreme hunger, it approaches the lonely camp of the traveller, with the hope of obtaining a share, however small, of his perhaps scanty fare.
