Originally published in 1877. A interesting early illustrated book on Taxidermy Methods with chapters on Localities, Habits and Methods of Obtaining Birds and Animals. Also included are Instructions in Moth and Butterfly Catching, Setting and Preserving. Many of the earliest books on taxidermy and natural history, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing many of these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
