Soft cover. Condition: VG. 8pp extract, printed in double columns, illustrated with 7 drawings, salvaged from a damaged copy of The Century Magazine, Volume XXIII, No. 5, March, 1882. From the opening paragraph, "It has been generally supposed that, aside from the custom of plural marriage prevailing among the Mormons, there was little to distinguish them from other religious communities. It is quite as generally believed that if means could be derived to suppress the practice of polygamy in Utah, no other evil of such magnitude as to require special attention from Congress or the people of the United States would remain to be corrected. A very cursory examination of tye Mormon system will show that polygamy is only one of a series of evils, attracting attention by its prominence rather than its preeminence over its fellows."

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the entertaining and lesser-known reality of the animal kingdom. The author, a keen observer of the natural world, presents amusing anecdotes and scientific insights to argue that humor is a trait not exclusive to humans. Through examples from the lives of birds, dogs, elephants, and other creatures, the book delves into the surprising ways animals express a sense of humor and mischief. By examining animal behavior, this book challenges our assumptions about the emotional lives of other species and provides a fresh perspective on the complexities of the animal mind.
