A classic study on the science of bird songs. Armstrong studied every aspect of this fascinating phenomenon: structure, components, development, mimicry, territorial songs, song-flight, annual cycles, and the influence of the environment. Packed with illustrations, charts and diagrams, this book is unsurpassed and comprehensive in its exploration of this unique form of communication in the animal kingdom. Octavo, 5-3/4" by 8-3/4". Has 335 pages, including index. Also has a paste-down bookplate on the inside front cover for "Dori Perk".

Book has no wear, pages slightly age-toned; dust jacket has wear, chips, small scratches and tears - hence very good. Dust jacket is price-clipped on lower front flap.
