Home Taxidermy for Pleasure and Profit is a classic taxidermy guide by Albert B. Farnham. Thoroughness, patience, and some love for nature, are qualities highly desirable in taxidermy art. Work prepared by one possessing these qualities need not be ashamed and practice will bring skill and perfection of technique. As a handicraft in which the workman has not been displaced or made secondary by a machine taxidermy is noticeable also, and for many reasons is worthy of its corner in the home work-shop.
