Volume I with a few small areas of worming mostly to rear endpaper and adjacent pages text not affected front cover with a thin trailing discoloration from damp the bindings otherwise bright and clean with just trivial shelfwear. A nice bright little-used copy internally.<br/> <br/> The result of the combined efforts of several of the most important American ornithologists of the early 20th century this is an attractively illustrated reference book intended to "interest the general public of Massachusetts and New England in birds and their rational conservation" via a usable field guide. Edward Howe Forbush 1858-1929 was an economic ornithologist who for many years served as the Director of the Department of Ornithology of the Massachusetts Department of Agriculture. This book represents a culmination of his career; Forbush died shortly before the completion of the final volume and it was edited and furnished with a glowing bibliographical sketch by Forbush’s colleagues who write that he was "a pioneer in the field of conservation and much of our progressive legislation of to-day is due to his far-sighted policy in urging greater protection for our wild life and to his efforts in stimulating public opinion in this direction." The first volume here covers water birds the second land birds from bob-whites to grackles and the third land birds from sparrows to thrushes. The work features animated illustrations by Louis Agassiz Fuertes 1874-1927. He was a lecturer in ornithology at Cornell and an outstanding painter of birds; in the words of the Audubon Society his "work was distinguished not only by the minute detail of each illustration but by his ability to capture each species' way of acting and holding itself. Every bird he painted seemed to have its own unique and vital personality." The third volume was completed following Fuertes’ untimely death so his illustrations are supplemented with a final 24 artworks by Allan Brooks 1869-1946. Brooks like Forbush and Fuertes was a respected member of the ornithological community and furnished illustrations of birds for publications both in his native Canada and throughout the world.

Wear to spine and extremities of wrapper lower cover detached but present. First Separate Appearance. 1 vols. 8vo. This work appeared in the Communications of the Essex Institute in May 1868 titled "Catalogue of the Birds of North America contained in the Museum." Coues stated that "the reprint gives the faunal list precedence over the museum catalouge but this is true only as regards the title-the general text is unaltered" Ayer. According to Coues there were only 50 copies of this reprint.<br /> <br /> Elliott Coues 1842-1899 became interested in natural history in particular ornithology when his family moved from New Hampshire to Washington D. C. Coues became aquainted with the Smithsonian Institution and its collections which fed his interests in natural history. As an assistant surgeon in the Army during the Civil War Coues "collected studied and published extensively on birds during his peripatetic military assignments" DSB at various forts in Arizona North Carolina and in the Dakota Territory. Later he served as naturalist for the Northen Boundary Commission 1873-1876 and for the Hayden survey in the ensuing four years. He was professor of anatomy at Columbian College now George Washington University from 1877 to 1886 and was editor of natural history subjects for the "Century Dictionary." He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences among numerous other societies and was a founder of the American Ornithologists' Union an early conservation group. Coues published some very well-received innovative tracts on birds with "Key to North American Birds" and "Check-List of North American Birds." "A distinctive feature of the "Check-List" was Coues's corrections in the orthography and pronunciation of original scientific names . . . He was a leader in the trend of his era toward reducing the great number of species names to varieties especially in local forms" DSB. He was considered a "lucid writer with a charming style second only and successor to Spencer F. Baird his mentor in ornithology Coues presented a great deal of information on the behavior and life histories of birds" DSB. Late in life he checked and annotated manuscripts of various American western exploration most notably the journals of Lewis and Clark and of Zebulon Pike.
