Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Kiwis: A monograph of the family Apterygidae. Heavy book extra postage may apply outside of New Zealand. Hard back with dust-jacket, minor shelf/edge wear. Minor creasing to cloth on corner of front cover and a couple of page corners. Foxing to end papers, otherwise very good. A little chipping to edges of jacket. Only in the islands of New Zealand are these ancient and curious birds - the kiwis - found, and this book brings together much that has been learned since their earliest sightings to the present time. The series of paintings and drawings by Ray Harris-Ching reveal kiwis in original and unexpected ways. The book is founded on a great deal of research and field trips, and describes in detail the way of life, habits and visual characteristics of kiwis as well as offering a history of the bird's discovery, its importance to the Maori and its place as a symbol and object of great affection in the hearts of New Zealanders. Altogether, some 75 colour and black and white illustrations add to this instructive book. Seller Inventory # ABE-1563855979182
