This is a beautiful and useful book. In the portrait of the male turkey we are struck with the prominence of the organ of self-esteem, the flaring upspread of the tail and the consequential strut, which pronounce it a veritable "portrait taken from life." Some of our public characters ought to sit to that painter.
