An illustrated, pocket text book that enables any one to quickly identify any song or insectivorous bird found east of the Rocky Mountains. It describes their habits and peculiarities; tells you where to look for them and describes their nests, eggs and songs. EVERY BIRD IS SHOWN IN COLOUR, including the females and young where the plumage differs, from watercolour drawings by the four-colour process. The illustrations are the BEST, the MOST ACCURATE, and the MOST VALUABLE ever printed in a bird book. “LAND BIRDS” is the most popular and has had the LARGEST SALE (over 200,000 copies) of any bird book published in this country. It is used and recommended by our leading ornithologists and teachers. 230 pages. Bound in flexible linen and leather WESTERN BIRD GUIDE By CHESTER A. REED A companion volume to the “Land Birds,” and “Water and Game Birds East of the Rockies.” It contains notes on all the land and water birds in the Rockies and West to the Pacific Coast. A coloured illustration of each subject appears on a page, with full description of appearance, season, nesting and food habits, and eggs. A full and complete index is provided, and valuable suggestions for systematic bird study. The colour work is of the highest quality, and is done after bird portraits that are accurate in all respects. Prepared by a recognized authority, the book, is perhaps the finest pocket bird manual obtainable. Printed in convenient form to slip into the back pocket, so as to be available for instant use. Bound in flexible linen and leather WATER AND GAME BIRDS By CHESTER A. REED, B. S. This book is uniform in size and scope with LAND BIRDS. It includes all of the Water Birds, Game Birds and Birds of Prey, east of the Rockies. Each species is ILLUSTRATED IN COLOUR from oil paintings; the bird, its habits and nesting habits are described. The pictures show more than 230 birds in colour, every species found in our range. They exceed in number those in any other bird book. In quality they cannot be surpassed—exquisite gems, each with an attractive background, typical of the habitat of the species. “LAND BIRDS” and “WATER BIRDS” are the only books, regardless of price, that describe and show in colour every bird. 250 pages, neatly boxed. Bound in flexible paper-lined cloth or in strong, flexible imitation leather FLOWER GUIDE
WILD FLOWERS EAST OF THE ROCKIES By CHESTER A. REED, B. S. With 320 Flowers in Colour, Painted by the Author This volume has been carefully prepared with two objects in view—to serve the greatest number of persons in the greatest possible way, and still have a volume that can be carried comfortably in the pocket. Most of the coloured paintings have been made from living plants, the balance from herbarium specimens. The text and pictures incorporate just those points that will serve to identify each flower as it is most likely to be found. The introductory pages give the life cycle of a plant from seed to seed.

The colour work is attractive and accurate, being reproduced from the work of well known flower portrait painters. The book is prepared by authorities, and the needs of the general public have been considered in the manner of presentation. A bibliography is provided for readers who wish to undertake a more detailed study. Of convenient pocket size, it is an ideal handbook of flower information.

By GENE STRATTON-PORTER This book contains the intimate observations of a bird lover who has been, uninvited, at many “at homes” of the birds. She made her visits with her camera, and the book is unique for its numerous unusual photographs of live birds taken nesting, feeding, and singing, revealing intimate aspects of bird life that have rarely been treated so successfully before. Mrs. Porter’s eloquent and enlivening style has made the birds as entertaining as any of her other characters. They are lifelike and amusing, and their comedies and tragedies, their habits and daily life, are presented in a way to leave the reader entertained and informed.
