A popular field handbook to the birds of Britain by naturalist W.H. Hudson, with a chapter on structure and classification by Frank E. Beddard, reissued by Longmans, Green in London and New York in 1921 for amateur ornithologists and general readers. George E. Lodge's black-and-white figures place single birds on rocks, bare branches and reed stems against soft washed backgrounds, giving designers clean perched-bird silhouettes, feather-pattern detail and small landscape vignettes.
