add to cart   close window

The article focuses on developments in the field of literature and its publishing, as of April 3, 1879. Henry Holt & Co. will immediately publish books like "Money and Trade," by Francis A. Walker; "Communism in America," by Henry Ammon James; "Renaissance in Italy: The Fine Arts," and so on. Daniel Slote & Co., New York, are preparing a children's edition of their "American Plant Book," especially adapted for the preservation of forest leaves. The opening paper in the American Naturalist for April, 1879 on "Animal Music, Its Nature and Origin," by Xenos Clark, is noticeable both for the scientific theory put forth in it and for probably the complete transcription of bird melodies yet made.
