FROM SEAGULLS TO ROBINS, woodpeckers to pheasants, Arthur Cleveland Bent’s series covers the “Life Histories of North American Birds.” Published under the auspices of the Smithsonianc Institution, this series “forms the most inclusive, most complete, and most-used single source of information on birds of this continent... Each volume describes in readable language and full detail the nesting habits, plumage, egg form, distribution, winter habits, courtship activities, migration, voice, food, and other particulars for each bird family.”

“The Winter Garden,” by Stanley Schuler, “shows you exactly how you too can have year-round enjoyment of your garden. You can start from scratch or adapt your present planting to provide winter, as well as summer, beauty. Schuler tells howto begin. Evaluate? (1) the rooms in which you most often sit jmd look out the windows; (2) the size of your property; (3) the lay of the land; (4) the exposure of the garden; (5) your view; and (6) the way you want to use a winter garden. He then explains how to eliminate or conceal ugliness and disperses focal points, evergreen hedges, large lawn areas, trafficways.” He describes specific suitable trees, shrubs, vines, groundcovers, and flowers; as well as full details on attracting birds and squirrels.
