The Mocking Bird also is printed only to be justly dismissed in the brief words Specimens imported in cages occasionally escape, but there is no authentic instance of this North American Bird having occurred wild in Europe.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
