Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Beautiful Birds in Far-Off Lands: Their Haunts and Homes
A mere description of the Birds would have failed to convey any idea of their loveliness; but the Coloured Illustrations which embellish the work bring them before our eyes with life-like reality.
These Beautiful Birds dwell in a land where winter never comes.' Their gay plumage is suited to a climate which is as one long summer's day. The ruby, the emerald, the topaz, form a part of their toilette; but none of these gems can rival the sumptuousness of their attire.
