First published in 1897, “Bird Neighbors” was nature writer Neltje Blanchan's first major work, combining hard science and personal experience in a profusely-illustrated and accessible volume. Upon publication, naturist John Burroughs hailed it as "reliable", while The New York Times praised the book's colour pictures and the fact that it could be easily "understood by all readers”. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in bird watching or ornithology, and it would make for a fantastic addition to any collection. Contents include: “Bird Families”, “Habitats of Birds”, “Seasons of Birds”, “Birds Grouped According to Size”, “Descriptions of Birds”, “Birds Conspicuously Black”, “Birds Conspicuously Black and White”, “Ducky and Gray and Slate-Colored Birds”, “Blue and Blush Birds”, “Brown, Olive or Grayish Brown”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing “Bird Neighbors” now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
