FASCINATING JUNGLE STUDIES OF JUNGLE LIFE 
Tropical Wild Life In British Guiana 
Being Zoological Contributions to Science, from 
the Tropical Research Station of the New 
York Zoological Society, at Kalacoon, 1916. 
By WILLIAM BEEBE, G. INNESS HARTLEY and PAUL G. HOWES 
with an Introduction by 
COLONEL THEODORE ROOSEVELT 
Octavo, Cloth, gily top and side stamp, 504 pages, 
3 colored plates and 140 other illustrations. 
. This remarkable volume sets an entirely new pace 
in the study of wild life. The three naturalist authors 
went to a South American jungle that was teeming 
with animal life, lived there under most advantageous 
conditions, and for several months indulged in a genu- 
me orgy of observations and studies of tropical wild 
life as that life was lived and developed from day to 
day. The keynote was the evolution and development 
of interesting and little known forms. 
The studies so beautifully revealed in this fascinating 
\ olume embraced such bird species as the wonderful 
tree-climbing hoatzin, various toucans, tinamou, jacana, 
am mghthawk, flycatchers, antcatchers, seed eaters,' 
and many others. The reptiles were the giant marine 
toad and alligator, and great work was done on the 
wasps. 
It tells the whole story of the Station, its work and 
its surroundings, and as a vivid exposition of tropical 
life in a rich South American jungle, it is unique and 
unrivalled. 
The wealth of skillfully made photographs brings the 
whole of the subject matter into the reader’s grasp.
