The Nature Library 



is a companion work to 



THE CYCLOPEDIA OF 

 AMERICAN HORTICULTURE 



ORTICULTURE is but the applied science of 

 nature. Nature, as she appears in her own 

 realm, has never been so charmingly, yet 

 scientifically presented as in THE NATURE 

 LIBRARY. A knowledge of Nature as she 

 manifests herself beyond the sphere that man has invaded 

 will invest husbandry with a new meaning. 



The Nature Library is at once an Introduction and a 

 Sequel to the Cyclopedia of American Horticulture, en- 

 circling it, yet nowhere infringing on its domain. The man 

 who best understands Nature free and untrammeled will best 

 understand how to mould her to his will. 



Write us and let us tell you more about this delightful 

 guide-book to the out-of-doors, and the fascinating wild-folk 

 that dwell there. 



Published in ten volumes, uniform in size and binding 

 with this, illustrated with 300 full-page colored photographs, 

 450 full-page half-tones, and nearly 5,000 smaller illustrations, 

 and containing over 4,000 pages of sparkling reading matter.
