In this work Bonaparte finished what Alexander Wilson started in his monumental work of the same title-and the first such work by an American. Of Bonaparte's work Bennett writes "This admirable supplement to Wilson is in the same format as the original 9 volume series and is regarded as an essential part of the work the whole being the most important work on American birds prior to Audubon and a collectors' item of absolutely basic importance" p. 16. This set is almost invariably found foxed as here with pronounced foxing to Vols. 1 2 & 4 while much milder in Vol. 3.
