The Human Side of Animals

by Royal Dixon

The HUMAN SIDE of BIRDS.

By ROYAL DIXON

With 4 illustrations in color and 32 in black-and-white. Cloth, 8vo.

With every statement based on fact, and every fact of unusual interest, the author shows that many qualities of and occupations in the human world have their parallels in the bird world.

Here is bird study from a new angle—instead of treating our bird neighbors as labeled specimens to be described in scientific terms, they are treated as friends, and a careful study is made of their disposition, character, emotions and "thought processes."

Mr. Dixon tells of birds who are policemen, athletes, divers, bakers; birds who maintain courts of justice and military organizations and many other curious types.
