ISBN10: 0856610941, ISBN13: 9780856610943, [publisher: Poyser] Hardcover First Edition 450, col distribution maps. . HB. Fine in d/w - almost as new. First edition. The landscape of Britain has been irreversibly changed over the last century. Modern agriculture, urban expansion, industry and transport have all left their mark, altering the face of the countryside forever. Shifting with the changing scene, the fortunes of Britain and Ireland's bird populations have fluctuated dramatically over the years. As current farming practices have evolved, the natural habitats and breeding patterns of many species have been disrupted. Urban and industrial growth has brought with it the pressures of new land use, pesticides, pollution and human interference. The activities of sportsmen, collectors and farmers have also taken their toll over the years. This book provides an absorbing account of the distribution changes of Britain and Ireland's birds over the last quarter of a century. Large colour distribution maps and their accompanying text paint a species-by-species picture of a period which completely transformed the landscape of this country. [9780856610943]

London: T. & A. D. Poyser, Date: 1996. First edition, 1996. Hardback. viii, 476pp. Dust jacket. Simon Holloway presents maps showing the distribution of Britain's birds during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. His researches have covered all of the numerous county avifaunas, which covered the whole country, as well as a great many other contemporary publications and reports. The book illustrates the effects of sportsmen, collectors and others on raptors such as the Buzzard and Red Kite, corvids and rare species like the Kentish Plover and Savi's warbler. Land use changes, such as drainage, enclosure and intensifying agriculture have also had large effects on groups like the waterfowl, wadesr and many passerines. Even pollution has had local effects which can be seen in the maps of some species. The maps and their accompanying texts make fascinating reading and paint a picture of Britain's and Ireland's breeding birds before the growth of modern agriculture but during a period when changes in the balance of rural and urban population began to alter the face of the countryside forever. An understanding of the situation of the birds in those past times will enhance both our enjoyment and understanding of their fate and fortune today and into the future. Book in very good condition.
