Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No dustjacket. 2nd Edition. The Book is in Very Good+ condition. Contains nearly three hundred illustrations and photographs documenting bird life by location; a section on the study of birds is also included. Arthur Augustus Allen (1885 ? 1964) was an American professor of ornithology at Cornell University. In 1935 Allen led an expedition to the Singer Tract in Louisiana to search for ivory-billed woodpeckers. They did discover some, in what was to turn out to be the last documented, definite sighting, including photographs and audio. In the early 2000s there was a flurry of excitement at possible sightings in the same region, but controversy surrounds how sure the sightings were.Allen published an ornithological history in 1933 under the title Fifty Years' Progress of American Ornithology, 1883?1933. He was dedicated to promoting the study of birds to a wide audience, in his books, films and public lectures. His Book of Bird Life (1930, reissued in 1961) was a well-written introduction to ornithology for its time. He also conducted pioneering studies on recording bird songs in 1929 which led to the first record on the phonograph of bird songs in 1932. He worked on what eventually became the independent Cornell Lab of Ornithology in 1955, and founded the Wildlife Society in 1936, leading the organization from 1938 to 1939.
