=THE KINDRED OF THE WILD. A Book of Animal life. With illustrations byCharles Livingston Bull.=
Appeals alike to the young and to the merely youthful-hearted. Closeobservation. Graphic description. We get a sense of the great wild andits denizens. Out of the common. Vigorous and full of character. Thebook is one to be enjoyed; all the more because it smacks of theforest instead of the museum. John Burroughs says: "The volume is inmany ways the most brilliant collection of Animal Stories that hasappeared. It reaches a high order of literary merit."
