Among the birds : a series of sketches for young folks, illustrating the domestic life of our feathered friends
Among the Birds is an 1868 Boston book by naturalist Edward A. Samuels, published by Nichols and Noyes for young readers, offering sketches of birds' home lives. Its pictures are plain wood engravings of single birds on leafy branches, with one scene of a owl and songbirds gathered around a nest, showing how a designer can use clear natural silhouettes and labelled specimen layouts.
