A BIRD BOOK
FOR TEACHERS
2?irb=1ltfe
By FRANK M. CHAPMAN
is especially adapted to the use of teachers. There
are 75 full-page colored plates figuring 1 00 common
birds. The Biographies are so arranged that they
may be used in supplemental reading. The Intro-
ductory Chapters treat of the bird's place in nature
and its relations to man, including its esthetic and
economic value; the wings, tail, bill, and feet of birds
and their uses, the colors of birds and what they mean,
bird migration, the voice of birds, birds' nests and eggs.
An Appendix throws all this matter into the form
of lessons, reviews the bird-life of a year, tells of the
more interesting events of each month, and gives lists
of the birds which may be looked for at certain seasons.
There is a Field Key, 'local lists' for various places,
and an outline of classification for those who want it.
