Excerpt from Twenty-Five Bird Songs for Children I have not made a particular point of keeping the melodies in the keys in which they were originally sung. Of greater importance, it seemed to me, was the preservation of the Spirit of the original song, transposing, where necessary, to keys which would allow suitable range for the child-voice. The melodic inter vals I have, of course, kept absolutely true. Most of the themes which I have used are the results of my own observa tions. My thanks are due, however, and heartily given to Mr. Henry Oldys and Mr. F. Schuyler Mathews for permission to make use of themes from their records, and for valuable suggestions. Credit has been given in the proper places for themes thus used. The colored illustrations have been obtained through the National Association of Audubon Societies. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
