Birds of Britain was a book that came out in 1967. The book featured the most popular, influential, and notorious girls of Britain. In the introduction by Anthony Haden-Guest: "This is the new British girl. Observe her. She is a novel phenomenon. She is loyal, also fickle obstinate, gentle, suspicious and trusting. Also sharp and feckless, realistic and fanstastic beyond belief...". So, here are just
