DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Natural History of Cage Birds: Their Management, Habits, Food, Diseases, Treatment, Breeding, and the Methods of Catching Them The Natural History of Cage Birds, which I now lay before the public, is a work I have long been solicited to write. There are many people who like to keep birds, who neither know their habits nor the proper treatment or food requisite for them. Even those who are not altogether ignorant of these, often have but very limited, superficial, and, what is worse, sometimes erroneous ideas on the subject. It is for such readers I have given the following Introduction; for professed naturalists will find nothing there but what they have already learnt, either from my own works or from those of other authors on natural history. If long experience and minute observation on the subject of his work is calculated to gain an author credit, I flatter myself that this will not be denied me, since from my earliest youth I have delighted in being surrounded with birds, and am so accustomed to them that I cannot write at my desk with pleasure, or even with attention, unless animated by the warbling of the pleasing little creatures which enliven my room.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Cage and Chamber-Birds: Their Natural History, Habits, Food, Diseases, Management, and Modes of Capture; Translated From the German Many persons who would find pleasure in keeping birds, are both unable to procure them, and ignorant of the proper method of treatment. Others, while possessing a certain degree of knowledge on these points, are unacquainted with the best and easiest methods. It is for such persons, and not for students of natural history, who are able to refer to more scientific works for the requisite information, that the present volume is designed. The statements contained in the following pages claim credit and authority, on the ground that they are the result of personal observation and experience. From childhood, I have always been passionately fond of birds; and even now I cannot pursue my literary labours with pleasure and success, unless my room be enlivened with the song of some forty or fifty, which utter about me at their pleasure. The reader there fore may, naturally, suppose that I have bestowed considerable attention on the subject, and endeavoured to ascertain not only the easiest, but the cheapest and best methods of preserving my feathered favourites in health. I have only to hope that the success of my attempt to impart information to my readers, may be commensurate with the opportunities which I have enjoyed of collecting it. It is possible that different opinions may have been formed as to the proper scope and interest of a work like the present. The following remarks will explain the mode in which I have divided the subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
