Abstract

THIS book contains a series of papers by well-known writers. The chief interest will gather around chapters iii. to vii. inclusive, which treat of the common sparrow. The trial of the sparrow is opened very ably by Mr. Chas. Whitehead (for the prosecution). He is well supported in the next chapter by Miss Eleanor A. Ormerod. These two writers for the prosecution will have the support of the vast majority of agriculturists in England, and their arguments contrast favourably with the less practical defence put forward in the two succeeding chapters by the Rev. F. C. Morris and the Rev. Theodore Wood. Ornithology in relation to Agriculture and Horticulture. Edited by John Watson. 220 pp. (London: W. H. Allen, 1893.)
