The Game Birds of India Burmah And Ceylon Volume 1st Volume 1st

About The Book : In this book “The Game Biros of India,” we feel keenly how much we shall need their indulgent consideration. The plates, the most important portion of the work, and to secure the proper preparation of which Captain Marshall devoted nearly an entire year's leisure at home, are by no means all that we could have desired. HE Butterfly Houbara, as Indian sportsmen in the North-West have not inappropriately designated the Little Bustard of Europe, is a regular and tolerably abundant winter visitant to the northern portions of the Trans-Indus Punjab. It is probable that from Moupin this species runs northwards along the Ta-sue-chan, or Great Snowy Mountains, to near the borders of Kansu. The Sarus is found, in suitable localities, throughout the Central Provinces (including Bustar and the other Feudatory States), the Madras Presidency, north of the Godavari, (and perhaps between the Kistna and Goddvari), Chota Nagpur, Lower Bengal, the North- Western Provinces and Oudh, Rajputana (except the more western portions), Cutch, Kdthiawar, the eastern portions of Sind and the Punjab, and in the Bombay Presidency north of the Nerbudda, and along the Coast, at any rate, as far south as the Tapti, and the southern talukas of the Surat District. About The Author : Allan Octavian Hume, CB ICS (1829–1912) was a British political reformer, ornithologist, civil servant and botanist who worked in British India. He supported the idea of self-governance by Indians and founded the Indian National Congress. A notable ornithologist, Hume has been called "the Father of Indian Ornithology" and, by those who found him dogmatic, "the Pope of Indian Ornithology". Charles Henry Tilson Marshall (1841–1927) was a British Army Officer, serving in the Punjab, India. In his spare time he collected birds in the Punjab and the Himalayas, and sent these to Allan Octavian Hume. He was the brother of George Frederick Leycester Marshall, with whom he published ornithological articles in The Ibis. He wrote The Game Birds of India, Burmah and Ceylon along with Allan Octavian Hume in three volumes between 1878 and 1880. He was the father of entomologist Guy Anstruther Knox Marshall.
