Реконструкцией истории Уоллеса я во многом обязан Джону ван Ваю, Майклу Шермеру, Россу Слоттену и Питеру Рэби, но ничто не сравнится с чтением самих слов этого блестящего писателя. В значительной степени я опирался на оригинальные записки и письма Альфреда Рассела Уоллеса, которые были очень кстати оцифрованы в рамках проекта «Переписка Уоллеса» и Линнеевского общества.
По истории викторианской эпохи наиболее важными для меня оказались исследования Линн Меррилл, Ричарда Кон-ниффа, Мириам Ротшильд, Д. Е. Аллена, Майкла Шрабба и Энн Колли.
В изучении перьевой моды важнее всего оказалась книга Робина Даути «Feather Fashions and Bird Preservation»[59] («Мода на перья и охрана птиц»). Также помогли книги «The Bird Collectors» («Коллекционеры птиц») Барбары и Ричарда Мир-нсов и «Catalogue of the Birds in the British Museum» («Каталог птиц Британского музея») в двадцати семи томах (1874-98). Тор Хэнсон щедро поделился своим временем: его книгу «Feathers» («Перья») было очень приятно читать. Остальные архивные материалы были найдены в библиотеках Университета Южной Калифорнии.
Тексты Эндрю Херда и Моргана Лайна о вязании мушек также очень мне пригодились.
В библиографии я перечислил многие важные источники, а основные идеи указал в примечаниях.
