Excerpt from The Birds of Yorkshire, Vol. 1 of 2: Being a Historical Account of the Avi-Fauna of the County I take this opportunity of expressing my grateful thanks for the valuable assistance he has rendered me during the past six years, and for placing at my dis posal the whole of his collected information up to the year 1888. I am also indebted to Mr. W. Denison Roebuck, joint author with Mr. Eagle Clarke of the Vertebrate Fauna of Yorkshire, who has placed unreservedly at my dis posal the ornithological portion of his collection of printed records, the result of many years' bibliographical examination of the literature of Yorkshire zoology, and to Mr. F. Boyes, who has supplied many notes on the East Riding. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
