This book is a compilation of bird stories written by our mother,
Martha Ramseur Gillham. They were first published in the Arkansas
Wildlife Federation newspaper Arkansas Out-of-Doors from 1972 until
1985. She was a longtime member of the federation which was
instrumental in passing Amendment 35 to the Arkansas constitution
which established the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission as an
independent body. All the illustrations were drawn by another
member and close friend, Joe Gray, a commercial and wildlife
artist, and political cartoonist in Dardanelle Arkansas. The book
has been assembled and published at the insistence and funding of
our father Ralph Gillham. All proceeds from sales will go to the
Yell County Wildlife Federation. Lucien and Richard Gillham, Joanna
Gray Lange and Bob Gray
