In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 208, xx, [1] ; illustrated, 4 in color ; 21 cm. ; John Horace McFarland (1859-1948) was an American master printer and horticulturist. Throughout his career, he advocated for civic beautification, and he became a leader in the conservation movement of the early twentieth century. His wid…e-ranging achievements made a lasting impact on printing processes, horticulture, and environmental protection. During McFarland's early years, his father operated a nursery and a small weekly newspaper in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. McFarland worked in both of his father's businesses as a youth. These early experiences instilled the passion for horticultural beauty and the business expertise that distinguished him personally and professionally. He eventually purchased his father's press. Combining the skills learned from these early experiences, he established a successful printing company of his own. He founded the J. Horace McFarland Company/Mount Pleasant Press, specializing in seed catalogs and nursery trade publications. Over the course of his lifetime, McFarland wrote and lectured extensively on horticulture, printing methods, and civic improvement. McFarland was a prominent member of the American Rose Society.

Ornithologists now work on a wider geographical basis, and these handbooks covers the whole of the Western Paleartic, which includes all Europe together with the Middle East to Turkey, Iraq, and Jordon, and Africa south to about 19 degrees North. Within the nine volumes are: Descriptions of over 770 species of birds, illustrations of each species in the form of specially commissioned colour plates. Colour Plates of eggs, black and white illustrations and many text figures showing such features as display postures, flight views, voice sonagrams, and melograms and annual cycles. A bibliography and indexes in each volume. This complete set is an indispensible work of reference, both for the professional scientist and for the ever growing body of amatuer ornithologists whose range of interests is expanding every year. Please note these books are comprehensive and are large volumes and when packaged together are packaged in a proper box/case to ship, therefore postage/shipping may increase from listed price depending on final destination. Please do contact to get a shipping quotation. An amazing collection of nine books that have been put together by so many talented individuals. The perfect reference for anyone who has an interest in birds.
