"Mr. Parkhurst has compiled a convenient pocket guide to the birds of
the New England States, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. He has
greatly simplified the common system of bird classification for the
beginner by omitting such details as are invisible at field-range, and
by emphasizing such characteristics as color, size, and time of
appearance."--_Review of Reviews_.
"He has given to his book every advantage essential to a plain,
straight-forward account of honest observation."--_N. Y. Tribune_.
"The advantage of H. E. Parkhurst's 'How to Name the Birds' is not
merely in its concise and careful descriptive matter, but in its form.
It is the only book of the sort that one can put into the pocket of an
ordinary coat and carry into the woods and fields when he is away on his
country rambles."--_Brooklyn Eagle_.
