Abstract
ANTS and their habits form a subject of perennial interest to general readers, so Mr. Kirby's popular account of the more remarkable phases of ant life should be successful. The text is lightly written, for the benefit of general readers who are entirely unfamiliar with insect life in its scientific aspects; but there is also much in it to interest attentive students of natural history.
Marvels of Ant Life.
