[Gutenberg 61808] • Tales About Birds, Illustrative of Their Nature, Habits, and Instincts

Excerpt from Tales About Birds: Illustrative of Their Nature, Habits, and Instincts

Birds are such universal favourites, and the Stories connected with their Habits and Instincts so varied and interesting, as to make me feel confident that the Volume now offered to my young readers will meet with a ready acceptance and approbation.

The Engravings, which have been executed by Mr. Landells, from Drawings by Mr. W. B. Scott, will, I hope, be found faithfully and spiritedly to embody the incidents of the Stories which they severally illustrate.
