 ment: The Dunes and Their Plants; Animals of the Dunes: 

 Interdunal Ponds and Tamarack Swamps: The Climax Forest

 Prairie: Lake Bluff, Ravine, and Ravine Valley: Brook, Creek 

 and River: Some Sources of Our Fauna and Flora: An Outline 

 of Some of the Important Plant and Animal Associations. A 

 valuable characteristic of the book are the tables and especially 

 the maps. There are many and excellent illustrations. The 

 book is bound in soft covers and will fit well into a pocket. We 

 can imagine the members of the Chicago Nature-Study Club 

 going afield, each armed with a copy of this Nature Guide Book. 

 It should be sold at news-stands for tourists, for seldom has a 

 book been written so calculated to make intelligent an inquiring 

 travelling public. The volume is equally valuable to the Scien- 

 tist; to our mind it is one of the most important written by this 

 eminent biologist.

These books are full of marvelous, but absolutely true tales about butterflies, 

 bees, fireflies, grasshoppers, crows, gulls, loons, eagles and other creatures with 

 habits so strange and wonderful as to be almost beyond belief. Both books 

 were written with a view to character development through nature contact, 

 with particular reference to kindness to fellow creatures.
