| Summary | "Game Birds and Game Fishes of the Pacific Coast" by H. T. Payne is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive work focuses on the various species of game birds and fishes found along the Pacific Coast of North America, providing practical information tailored for sportsmen rather than ornithologists or ichthyologists. The text emphasizes accessible descriptions and illustrations that aim to inform and educate hunters, particularly younger generations who are just beginning their journey into these outdoor sports. At the start of the book, the author discusses the significance of the newly implemented laws regarding hunting licenses, which have increased interest in game sports among the population. He explains how the book is designed from the perspective of a practical sportsman, using plain language to describe various species while including scientific classification for further study. The opening outlines his intent to share the knowledge accumulated from decades of experience in fields and streams, highlighting the connection between hunting these birds and the joy it brings to those who partake in these outdoor activities.
