[Sixty-eight Indian Birds. Articles collected from the Journal of the

by INGLIS, C[harles] M[cFarlane]

  • Used
  • Hardcover
Pp.[236] unpaginated; 20 coloured lithograph plates & 4 monochrome; original red cloth, lettered in gold, backstrip faded and a little frayed at head & tail but well preserved. Evidently made up by Inglis from off-prints of his articles for the Darjeeling Nat. Hist. Soc., he supplies a preface leaf by way of explanation but no title or any other prelims. Extremely scarce, Copac lists only the Bodleian Library copy which evidently has the same make-up. They suggest a date of [1939-49?] which we amend in the light of the inscription in this copy. Best known for his 'Birds of an Indian Garden' of 1924, (2nd ed. 1936), Inglis was Curator at the Darjeeling Natural History Museum.
