Publisher description
Excerpt from Birds of California: An Introduction to More Than Three Hundred Common Birds of the State and Adjacent Islands, With a Supplementary List of Rare Migrants, Accidental Visitants, and Hypothetical Subspecies
While, in the preparation of this work, I have met with universal kindness from the ever-hospitable Californians, my especial thanks are due to members of the Cooper Club and to Dr. David Starr Jordan, of Leland Stanford University, for many courtesies extended and kindly encouragement given. For advice and assistance I am also indebted to Mr. Chas. F. Lummis, Mr. Leverett M. Loomis, Mr. John Muir, Mr. Joseph Grinnell, Mr. H. R. Taylor, and the late Chester A. Barlow. But it is to my fellow-student and co-laborer, my husband, Mr. Harry B. Wheelock, that I owe most. With untiring patience he has read manuscript, checked lists, and corrected errors, thereby making it possible for me to go on in the face of many obstacles.
