Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. Covers slightly marked, but a nice, firm copy. Top edge gilt; numerous plates. "When an intruder trespasses upon the domain of this species [Stercorarius crepidatus: Arctic Skua] during the breeding-season, the parent birds, especially if their young are newly hatched, fly to meet him uttering their peculiar mewing notes; while, not content with such noisy protests, they dash down at his head with vicious and unremitting energy. Dogs, perhaps, suffer more than men, for the claws are in their case said to be used as weapons of offence, but the Allan will not hesitate to make straight for an offending person s head, and will only swerve to one side at the very last moment, occasionally buffeting him with his wings as it shaves closely past. Generally speaking, this species attacks from behind, and therein differs from the Bonxie, which aims directly at the face.".…

Edinburgh: David Douglas. 1899. 8vo. Original green cloth, gilt lettering to spine, t.e.g.; pp. xxx + 248 + [12, ads.], 15 illustrations, 1 map; slightly bumped to extremities, very good.First edition. A Vertebrate Fauna of Scotland series. A scarce and sought after volume, "one which should be indispensable to every visitor to the most northern group of the British Islands, whether or no he be specially interested in birds. For in place of restricting themselves to a detailed account of the various members of their vertebrate fauna, Messrs. Evans and Buckley have furnished a very interesting description of the more striking physical features of these islands, together with numerous notes on the people and their mode of life. But perhaps the most generally attractive feature of the work will be the exquisite views of Shetland scenery with which it is adorned; these illustrations reflecting the highest credit alike on the photographer and on the artist responsible for their reproduction in the present form" (Richard Lydekker, review, Nature 62, 75-76 ,24 May 1900). This remains a standard work.From the library of R.J. Berry.…
