Buch Erstausgabe
(Hardcover, 1986). 1986 1st edition. 4to. Pp382. B/w photographs, b/w illustrations by Donald Watson, maps, bibliogrpahy. Dark red boards. Very good. Adhesive plastic film to dust-wrapper. "This impressively comprehensive study and review of the birds in Scotland by Valerie Thom, editor of Scottish Birds and past-President of the Scottish Ornithologists' Club, may be said to follow on where the celebrated two volumes of The Birds of Scotland (1953). left off. It does more than that, however, since not only has there been a profound increase in ornithological coverage and data (as reflected in the species accounts), there have also been great changes in habitat and environment since [1953]. These aspects provide the themes of the ten preliminary chapters reviewing the Scottish scene today in terms of habitat, conservation, birdwatching and the changes in species status and distribution." A most important account, and a terrific read. .
