It covers aspects such as geographical distribution, habits, nesting methods, and characteristics of various species, making it a crucial resource for ornithologists and bird enthusiasts.

The introduction discusses the classification of birds and outlines the goals of the text, which include systematic descriptions based on extensive research and numerous prior reports. There is a focus on the contributions from various naturalists and explorers, as well as the utilization of manuscripts from the Smithsonian Institution, which serves as a pivotal source of information for the work.
