n The Secret Language of Animals, biologist Janine
Benyus takes us inside the animal kingdom and shows
us the whys and the hows behind the distinctive behavior
of creatures great and small in their natural environments.
Divided geographically into ve sectionsAfrica, Asia,

giraffe, ostrich, greater famingo, Nile crocodile, giant
panda, peacock, Komodo monitor, bottlenose dolphin,
California sea lion, gray wolf, bald eagle, sandhill crane,

For each animal, Benyus describes and explains

social play, group defense, conict, aggression/submission,
ghting, courtship, copulation), and parenting behavior
(birth, care and feeding, teaching, communal care).

a deep connection with, and a great admiration for, each
one of the animals.

experience daily life in one of the worlds most vibrant
cities through mesmerizing, contemporary 3D photography
and exciting tales of the time.
Black Dog & Leventhal has partnered with the New-
York Historical Society to present New York in the Gilded
Age as its never been viewed before. This innovative
package includes a sturdy metal stereoscopic viewer and
50 stereoscopic photographs of turn-of-the-century New
York. The package also includes a 128-page paperback that
provides a brief history of the stereograph craze and an
overview of the citys evolution during that time.
New York City in 3D in the Gilded Age details the rapid
growth of Manhattan from 1877 to 1910, when nearly half
of the millionaires in America lived in the city. Enduring
structures such as the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge,
Grand Central Station, Ellis Island Immigration Station, and
the rst skyscrapers were built during this time, culminating
in the construction of the 47-story Singer Building in 1908.
The 50 stereoscopic images include Coney Island lit up at
night; a view of Madison Square Garden in 1900 from the top
of the Flatiron Building; peddlers carts on Elizabeth Street
in 1904; the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge in 1880; the
Ellis Island dining room in 1907; and Times Square with the
new Astor Hotel in 1908.
Detailed descriptions of the scenes depicted in each
stereographic photograph are included on the back of the photo.
The New-York Historical Society, one of Americas pre-eminent
cultural institutions, is dedicated to fostering research, presenting
history and art exhibitions, and offering public programs that reveal
the dynamism of history and its inuence on the world of today.
Founded in 1804, the New-York Historical Societys museum is
the oldest in New York City and predates the founding of the
Metropolitan Museum of Art by nearly seventy years. Its art
holdings comprise more than 1.6 million works.
