_PRESS OPINIONS._
_Globe._—“Mr. Dewar is not only a keen and patient observer, but he is
gifted with the descriptive art in high degree, and his vivacious style
communicates the characters and habits of birds with unerring fidelity
and infinite spirit.”
_Sportsman._—“Mr. Dewar has a delightfully simple and quaintly humorous
way of expressing himself, and his clever word pictures of bird life make
charming reading.”
_Truth._—“The volume is handsomely produced, and, like its predecessor,
it has a number of remarkably fine illustrations.”
_Manchester Guardian._—“Those who enjoyed ‘Bombay Ducks’ will welcome
‘Birds of the Plains.’ His breezy style is pleasant and easy reading. The
photographs deserve the highest praise.”
_Daily Chronicle._—“Here is a work worthy of all commendation to those
who love birds, and is ably seconded by Captain Fayrer’s excellent
photographs.”
