Review - Lapwings, Loons and Lousy Jacks
Pretty dry as a read-straight-through book, but it contained some interesting bits now and again.

| Notes: | The author explores the origins and meanings behind bird names, concentrating on Great Britain, where he's from, but also from the U.S., Australia, Trinidad, and Spain, where he's birded. He looks at the official names, the Latin names, and the vernacular names. |
