Handbook to the birds of Australia.
London: Author, 1865. Octavo, Publisher's handsome decorated cloth, front endpaper of volume one marked, otherwise a near fine copy.
The Handbook is a significant elaboration of the text of Birds of Australia and Gould's final contribution to Australian ornithology. It is still a useful book in any working collection of Australian ornithology.
