Book Description
Excerpt from Song Birds, and How to Keep Them In writing this little book for the use of those who, like myself, are fond of birds, and anxious to make their lives among us as joyous as their songs, I do not set myself up to be a scientific birdkeeper. My own birds have thriven and become extremely tame, and they seem as happy as little birds can be; yet mine professes to be simply a natural mode of treatment. My experience of birds' ways began when a child, in becoming familiar with them while in their wild state, and I have since gone on gathering from books, and friends, and personal observations, details of their habits when free; thus learning how to make them more happy in confinement.

Book Description
Excerpt from Song Birds and Water Fowl One of the most famous resorts of land-birds in the Eastern States is in the town of Englewood, N. J.; to be precise, West Englewood, a small farming district at some distance from Englewood itself. But let no one, meditating a trip to this avian shrine, be misled, as I nearly was, by an unscrupulous ticket-agent of the New Jersey Northern Railroad, who tried to persuade me that all of Englewood worth mentioning was on his road - a statement fully two miles wide of the truth, for West Englewood is on the West Shore road. The circumstance that makes this an attractive spot to the feathered tribe is its variety of topography, and, consequently, of vegetable and animal life; for, within a small area, are comprised upland and swamp, woods, shrubbery, and open land - quite an epitome of nature with such diversity of growth as to allure the varied tastes of a wide range of species.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Second Book of Bird Songs for Children Keenly appreciative of the kind words which have greeted the publication of twenty-five Bird Songs for Children, the author is encouraged to add to the list of birds therein treated, this second volume of twenty songs. With the woods, fields and marshes overflowing with suggestive melodies and calls which challenge the musical ear and creative. Imagination, there is no reason why we should not have songs about every bird which has a characteristic song or call - note. Miss Kitty Cheatham writes: Some day we will have great inspirational music when composers go to the right sources for their inspiration. To what source should we go for inspiration as well as actual thematic material for the composition of Bird Songs for Children but the birds themselves, for where else in nature can we find music so like our own both in rhythm and melodic form?

Book Description
Excerpt from Birds of Song and Story The Birds They are swaying in the marshes, They are swinging in the glen, Where the cat-tails air their brushes In the zephyrs of the fen; In the swamp's deserted tangle, Where the reed-grass whets its scythes; In the dismal, creepy quagmire, Where the snake-gourd twists and writhes. They are singing in arroyos, Where the cactus mails its breast, Where the Spanish bayonet glistens On the steep bank's rocky crest; In the canon, where the cascade Sets its pearls in maiden-hair, Where the hay and holly beckon Valley sun and mountain air. They are nesting in the elbow Of the scrub-oak's knotty arm, In the gray mesh of the sage-brush, In the wheat-fields of the farm; In the banks along the sea beach, In the vine above my door, In the outstretched, clumsy fingers Of the mottled sycamore. While the church-bell rings its discourse They are sitting on the spires; Song and anthem, psalm and carol Quaver as from mystic lyres. Everywhere they flirt and flutter, Mate and nest in shrub and tree. Charmed, I wander yon and hither, While their beauties ravish me, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
