Hardcover. Condition: Fair. First Edition. This fairly rare second edition presents 27 classes of animals for examination. While not a technical textbook, it is an examination of animal behavior, natural history, and moral instruction, presenting short narratives and anecdotes designed to teach both scientific curiosity and ethical lessons. The tone is typical of Methodist juvenile literature of the period: uplifting, didactic, and aimed at shaping character through stories of animal intelligence, loyalty, instinct, and courage. The structure is episodic; each chapter focuses on a specific animal or behavior, using real or embellished anecdotes to illustrate traits such as bravery, affection, cunning, or perseverance. Previous owner inscription on first page. Fairly heavy foxing, dog-ears, etc. A well-enjoyed copy but still fairly solid.

Near Fine, Gilt Brilliant, No Marks. Dust Jacket Priced $3.00, Wear, Small Losses At Corners, 2 3/4" X 1 1//2" Deep V-Chip At Top Of Rear Panel. Interesting Commentaries, Revealing About What Prominent Americans Thought Civilization Was (In 1930). However, The Beard Studies Omit Any Response From Any In The Great Masses Of The World Who Do Not Invent Or Manufacture, Nor Own Or Manage, The Technological Enterprises Which Are The Essence Of Technological Development, Which Is The Primary Concern Of These Respondents; Nor Has Any Study In The Succeeding 90 Years Attempted To Explore The Meaning Of Culture So Except In The Most Superficially Journalistic And Condescending Manner. But What Could Go Wrong? Aren't The Elites, After All, Elite? It Isn't Like Unprincipled Demagogues, Secure With All The Advantages Of Modern Technology, Would Incite Violence Amongst The Vast Majority, With Relatively Ever-Declining Options Ever-Declining Self-Esteem And Relatively Ever-Declining Standards Of Living. Why Bother Talking To Them To See Anything More Than Whether They Agree Or Not? And Who Will Ever Want To Read Ordinary People's Opinions When The Questions They're Asked Are Always Stupidly Closed-Ended And Never Followed Up By Why Etc.?
