Item description from seller

This reference work is No. 22 in the special publications series by the Saskatchewan Natural History Society. It has 456 pages plus 3 overlays. Approx. 370 species are discussed from the rather common Ring-billed Gull to the Solitary Vireo to the almost unknown Hooded Warbler. Each species has a page-sized (8" X 11 ") distribution map. Very rare visitants are grouped on a single map as to their type - (e.g.) some gulls and kittiwakes all on p. 185. Each species has a b/w drawing by the author accompanying the map, as well as some written comments on distributions - some currrent, some historical. Some distribution information for adjoining areas - Alberta, Manitoba, Montana and the Territories is implied by the maps. VERY well indexed at back. Cond : Paper wrapper is yellow (and blue) with black lettering. A meadowlark gets front cover billing in colour. ONE sli. soft corner.Binding tight, colours bright. No names, creases,stains, marks, nor tears. Giftable !! Quote (p. 06) : " .used the 10 x 10 km squares that are standard elsewhere in North America for bird atlases, there would be no less than 6520 individual squares. A great many of these 10-km squares have no roads, and many have never been visited by anyone with binoculars and a bird book. This situation pertains to an embarasssing extent even for the larger . ." Size: 4to.
