A Very Heavy Book which will incur extra postage overseas. Blue cloth boards with gold lettering and decoration to spine. Faint foxing showing to top edge. The pictorial Dust Jacket has some light foxing to the inside. 520 Pages. The publication in 1976 of The Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Ireland on behalf of the British Trust for Ornithology and the Irish Wildbird Conservancy heralded a new era in ornithology. This was the first attempt to map the distributions of an entire breeding avifauna at a national level in an objective manner. It presented the results of a field survey which recorded the presence or absence of all breeding bird species within each 10km square of the national grid over the five year period from 1968 - 72. Twenty years on, the BTO and the IWC, this time in association with the Scottish Ornithologist Club, repeated the survey using similar methods, albeit with one important difference, by visiting tetrads (2 km - squares) within each 10 km square an estimate of the abundance of each species in each 10 km square was also obtained. The results of the survey are presented here in The New Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Ireland 1988 - 1991. This volume differs from its predecessor in that instead of presenting a single distribution map for each species, most species accounts include three maps, one of distribution, one of abundance - represented using innovative colour cartography techniques - and one of the change in distribution since 1968-72. The change maps, in particular, serve to highlight species whose populations may be under threat. An introductory chapter describing the methods used, and rationale behind their adoption, is followed by 208 full species accounts and 13 brief accounts of rare breeders. A series of chapters then discuss ways in which methodological biases were dealt with, the manner in which population size were estimated and recent changes in the status of British and Irish breeding birds.…
