Newcastle, Printed by Sol. Hodgson, for Beilby & Bewick . and C. G. & J. Robinson, 1797 (Per il primo volume) e Newcastle, Printed by Edward Walker for T. Bewick, 1804 (per il secondo volume). Due volumi in-8vo legatura piena pelle coeva con doppio tassello e fregi dorati ai dorsi (qualche lieve spellatura), pp. (2), XXX, 335 + XX, 400 con numerosissime incisioni xilografiche nel testo. Con due exlibris xilografici ai contropiatti anteriori. Prima edizione. L'opera di Bewick divenne rapidamente una delle opere ornitologiche più popolari tra i non addetti ai lavori - il libro serviva come ?guida da campo per principianti? per le persone senza conoscenze specialistiche. Bewick illustrava meticolosamente ogni specie, attingendo dal vero quando possibile o utilizzando pelli quando necessario. I nomi comuni e scientifici, con le rispettive autorità, erano documentati. Il testo forniva descrizioni esaurienti degli uccelli, descrivendone dettagliatamente la distribuzione e il comportamento, spesso incorporando ampie citazioni di fonti a stampa o di corrispondenti. Le specie erano organizzate in famiglie come ?Del falco?, basandosi sulle limitate e contrastanti fonti scientifiche dell'epoca. Gli uccelli terrestri erano ulteriormente classificati in gruppi come rapaci, onnivori, insettivori e granivori, mentre le famiglie di uccelli acquatici erano elencate in modo semplice, con famiglie affini presentate una accanto all'altra.
