Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1793, is an ornithological catalog of the natural specimens collected by the author. Included are 101 entries that contain detailed descriptions of the birds, noting their physical features, unusual coloration, and migratory behavior. The volume is an artifact of the authorâs position as a pioneer ornithologist, working at a unique intersection of history and nature.
