Excerpt from The American Natural History: A Foundation of Useful Knowledge of the Higher Animals of North AmericaThe foregoing is for the eyes of adult readers. Argument is not necessary to con vince young people that a mighty host of interesting things awaits every one who sets foot in the field of Nature. To - day, the all-absorbing question is - how can Nature be made available to the young?This book is one of my two answers to that question, and it is particularly addressed to teachers and parents. It is intended to be a plain, practical, common - sense answer, presented in a systematic and scientific way. The author assumes that fifteen years of earnest thought, and conferences with scores of teachers on the subject of natural history teaching in American public schools, may fairly entitle him to a hearing.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
