by Turner, Angela K. & Rose, Chris 
Price: USD 26.10
Dealer: AbebooksUK, Edinburgh Books
Description: ISBN10: 0747032025, ISBN13: 9780747032021, [publisher: Christopher Helm, London] Hardcover First Edition 1989. x, 258pp. Colour and b&w illustrations. Signed by the author "To Cliff with best wishes, Angela" on the half title page. Some correspondence from Cliff Davies, including a copy of his review of the book is loosely inserted at time of listing. "Swallows and martins are familiar and popular birds, largely because of their habit of nesting in close association with humans. They are known throughout the world and are often considered symbols of good fortune and, in temperate regions, as harbingers of spring. However, there has been no review of the family since Sharpe and Wyatt's monograph in 1885-1894. Our knowledge of these birds has of course increased considerably since then. . Indeed, some species have received a large amount of scientific attention in recent years. A Handbook to the Swallows and Martins of the World provides a detailed and up-to-date account of their biology and their identification. In the plate section each species is depicted in exquisite detail by Chris Rose, and colour maps showing distribution and breeding ranges alongside the plates make for easy reference. . The bulk of the book comprises chapters on the family's characteristics, classification, distribution, ecology, behaviour, breeding biology and population status, as well as a short account of each species. Each account describes the field characteristics, habitat, distribution, movements, behaviour, breeding biology, voice, plumage, races and measurements of the species. This stunning and authoritative book provides an important source of identification as well as reference to the biology and ecology of the 74 species of swallows and martins throughout the world." Book and unclipped dust jacket both in excellent condition with no inscriptions. [Edinburgh, United Kingdom] [Publication Year: 1989]
