The Observer's Book Of Birds

Product Information

After a hiatus of 17 years, Peregrine Books published the appropriately titled Observer's Book of Observer's Books in 1999, in a format that matched the original editions and was numbered 99 so as to follow on from the last 'official' title. As the title implies, it is a guide to the series with details of its history, authors, and print-runs. As a sign of the series' collectability, this potentially obscure book has been reprinted no fewer than six times. The series was rounded up to 100 with the publication of Wayside and Woodland in 2003.

'Spotter' titles like Aircraft, Automobiles and Railway Locomotives proved successful. In 1942 a special edition book was brought out on "airplanes" [ sic]. This book had no number in the series, as it was brought out to help people spot enemy warplanes. [2] It was reprinted in 1943 and 1945.
