Every Sportsman in America 
Will sit up and take notice—just as these Pelicans are doing—when 
he catches his first glimpse of a new work now in press after years 
of labor—on the part of America’s greatest naturalists, ornithologists, 
field men, and hunters. It is called the 
Nature Lovers Library 
SIX LARGE VOLUMES 
2,000 PAGES 
5,000 SUBJECTS 
It is like no other work you ever saw, and will just fill that gap in your library. It is 
the only _ complete and final record of our birds and animals, many of which are fast 
disappearing. The text is of two kinds—first, an exact, scientific description; and, second, 
a live-wire story of the animal and its habits, by some man out in the field. And the 
pictures are right from the open, too. You see the bear charging—and the moose turning 
with angry surprise. 
Birds of America 
Edited by T. Gilbert Pearson of the Na¬ 
tional Association of Audubon Societies; 
John Burroughs and others. 
Upwards of 1000 of our native birds are 
described. The text is „■ pplemented by 
hundreds of drawings as well as photo¬ 
graphs of living birds. There are over 
100 full color plates. 
Mammals of America 
Edited by H. E. Anthony, of the Amer¬ 
ican Museum of Natural History, and 
other authorities. 
All the big game and smaller animals of 
this country are shown in a vivid way. 
Over 500 different species are described, 
many of them being very rare. Exact 
measurements and range are shown. 
The Latest of Nature Books—And the Handsomest 
All the world of living things is covered in text and picture. The pages fairly glow with 
color and life. Nothing we might say would give you a fair idea of their beauty and 
interest. We want you to SEE these books for yourself—decide afterwards. And the price 
at which this FIRST EDITION is being offered—for advertising purposes—must soon go up. 
If you are one of the many outdoors-men who have been waiting for a full and up-to-date 
Natural History—or if you want to give someone else the best Christmas gift ever —then by 
all means

AMERICAN 
GAME BIRD 
SHOOTING 
By George Bird Grinnell 
This large and profusely illus¬ 
trated volume covers the whole 
field of upland shooting in Amer¬ 
ica. It deals with the birds fol¬ 
lowed by the upland shooter 
with dog and gun, and gives prac¬ 
tically everything that is known 
about the woodcock, the snipe, all 
the North American quail, grouse 
and wild turkeys. This is its 
scheme: 
Part I—Life histories of upland 
game birds; many portraits. 
Part II—Upland shooting, and 
also guns, loads, dogs, clothing. 
Part III—Shooting of the fu¬ 
ture, ruffed grouse, quail, etc. 
There are life-like colored plates 
of the ruffed grouse and quail, and 
48 other full-page plates, with 
many line cuts in the text. 
The book is really the last word 
on upland shooting, and this is 
what some of the authorities think 
of it: 
“It is, I think; a model of what 
such a book should be—but so sel¬ 
dom is. It is, indeed, much more 
than a treatise on field sports, for 
it furnishes such full and excellent 
life histories of the birds of which 
it treats that it should find a place 
in every library devoted to pure 
ornithology.”—William Brewster, 
Cambridge, Mass. 
“A very complete monograph for 
sportsmen and naturalists . 
with anecdotes, of his own and 
others . . . The book will be 
enjoyed not only by sportsmen, but 
by the general reader .”—Sun New 
York. 
“An important, thoroughly reli¬ 
able and well written book; a work 
that will be read with interest and 
pleasure by sportsmen. The work 
is the first complete one of its 
kind .”—Boston Globe. 
“This volume is especially wel¬ 
come—a treat to every man who 
loves to tramp the uplands with 
dog and gun.”— Inter-Ocean, Chi¬ 
cago. 
This book is a companion vol¬ 
ume to American Duck Shooting, 
and the two cover practically the 
whole subject of field shooting 
with the shotgun in North Amer¬ 
ica. 
Illustrated, cloth. About 575 pages. 
Price, $ 3.50 net; postage, 25 c.
