" A wonderful work."— Good Citizen. 



" A Great Work."— National Teacher. 



" A magnificent Ornithological work."— Turf, Field & Farm. 



" A magnificent work, equal to ' Audubon's Birds,' giving all 

 the birds of North America, with elaborate plates in natural 

 colors accompanied by descriptions."— Education, Boston. 



" If artistic and beautifully colored plates, letter-press of the 

 highest order, and scientific knowledge reduced to the plainest 

 te-ras can make up a valuable work, this certainly deserves 

 that designation." — American Sportsman. 



From Dr. Elliott Coues, President of the American 

 Ornithologists' Union, Author of "Birds of the North- 

 west," "Colorado Valley," "Key to North American 

 Birds," etc. 



"lean heartily recommend the whole work as one admir- 

 ably meeting the design of a popular ornithology of North 

 America at once instructive and entei taining, at a reasonable 

 price. The text is perfectly reliable. The technical nomen- 

 clature is correct, being that used by the best ornithologists 

 of the country. 



From Right Rev.Bishop A.Cleveland Cox, D.D..LL.D. 



" For a family of intelligent children, here is a book which 

 may furnish a never-failing fountain of interest and entertain- 

 ment. I count him a happy man who can afford to lay It 

 before his family and his guests. How pure, how ennobling 

 such a study ! It may prompt youthful genius to further re- 

 searches in these fields ; and if it tempts a young girl to try 

 her hand at drawing or coloring such portraits of our feath- 

 ered visitors and co-citizens for purposes of domestic orna- 

 ment, it will be a happy result. I recommend this book to 

 purchasers— a very rare sort of a commendation from me." 



From Prof. C. 8. Maynard, Author of " The Birds of 

 Florida," and "Birds of Eastern North America." 



" I am much pleased with ' Studer's Birds of North America.' 

 In the grouping of the birds, arangement of light and shade 

 in the perspective and delineations of the forms and feathers, 

 Dr. Jasper has certainly surpassed all other artists, producing 

 the best pictures of the species which I have ever seen."
