The Song of the Cardinal is a novel written by Gene Stratton-Porter, published in 1903. The story revolves around a male cardinal who lives in the woods of Indiana. The cardinal is known for his beautiful singing voice, which he uses to attract a mate and defend his territory against other birds. The novel is divided into two parts. The first part follows the cardinal as he searches for a mate and builds a nest. He eventually finds a female cardinal and they start a family together. The second part of the novel focuses on the challenges the cardinal faces as he tries to protect his family from predators and other dangers in the woods. Throughout the novel, Stratton-Porter uses the cardinal as a symbol of love and devotion. The cardinal's dedication to his mate and family is contrasted with the selfishness and cruelty of some of the other animals in the woods. The novel also explores themes of nature, survival, and the importance of family.The Song of the Cardinal is considered a classic of American literature and is often praised for its vivid descriptions of nature and its portrayal of the cardinal as a sympathetic and relatable character.She had taken possession of the sumac. The location was her selection and he loudly applauded her choice. She placed the first twig, and after examining it carefully, he spent the day carrying her others just as much alike as possible. If she used a dried grass blade, he carried grass blades until she began dropping them on the ground.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
