GENUINE ORIGINAL ANTIQUE Actual Page from the Book Titled "COLOURED FIGURES OF THE EGGS OF BRITISH BIRDS" BY HENRY SEEBOHM About Henry Seebohm Henry Seebohm (1832 - November 26, 1895) was an English steel manufacturer, and amateur ornithologist, zoologist and traveller. Seebohm was born in Bradford. His interest in natural history led him to travel widely, in Greece, Scandinavia, Turkey, and South Africa. His expeditions to the Yenisey tundra of Siberia were described in his two books, Siberia in Europe (1880) and Siberia in Asia (1882), which were combined in the posthumous publication The Birds of Siberia (1901). He was one of the first European ornithologists to accept the American trinomial system to classify sub-species. Seebohm's other publications included A History of British Birds (1883), The Geographical Distribution of the family Charadriidae (1887), The Birds of the Japanese Empire (1890) and A Monograph of the Turdidae (1898). A number of birds were named after Seebohm, including the Grey Emu-tail Dromaeocercus seebohmi by Richard Bowdler Sharpe. Beest quality read more
