How Animals, Birds, Reptiles and Insects Talk, Think, Work and Live 



By PAUL B. Du CHAILLU 

 With 30 illustrations by C. R. Knight and J. H. Gleeson. , Square 8vo, $2.00 



Undoubtedly the masterpiece of the well-known explorer, in which his young friends 

 may read how his companions of the great African Forest, in which he spent so many 

 years, describe in their own language their characteristics, feelings, manner of life, means 

 of subsistence, etc., as if they were actually endowed with the gift of speech and had made 

 him their confidant. The copious illustrations, by artists of reputation as animal painters, 

 emphasize the adventurous interest and picturesqueness of which wild animal life is full.
