A Study of the Structure of Feathers: With Reference to Their Taxonomic Significance is a scientific book written by Asa Crawford Chandler in 1916. The book focuses on the physical structure of feathers found in birds and their importance in classifying different bird species. Chandler examines the microscopic features of feathers, including their barbs, barbules, and hooks, and how they interlock to form a strong and flexible surface. He also discusses the various types of feathers found on different parts of a bird's body and how they contribute to flight, insulation, and display. The book is intended for ornithologists, zoologists, and anyone interested in the anatomy and classification of birds. It is a valuable resource for understanding the complex and intricate nature of feathers and their role in avian biology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
