Excerpt from Andersch Bros. Hunters and Trappers Guide: Illustrating the Fur Bearing Animals of North America, the Skins of Which Have a Market Value, Describing the Various Animals, Geographical Location, Habits, Mode of Living, Propagation, and How to Hunt and Trap ThemIn the process of evolution, when animal life was engendered from the vegetable, the resultance of some form of copulation, the conception of which seems impossible for local realization and description. The theological version of Creation and divi sion of life falls asunder, excepting when leaning upon Darwin's popular intimation, that at some remote period life may have been breathed into one or more forms by the Creator, but very probably the infinite spark of life was inborn in the very exis tence of being.Leaving the vegetable and animal transmigrative period and skipping a million years, we find the evolutionary epoch has some what specialized the living forms, but man is yet at a great dis tance. Nature, or the natural selection and survival of the fittest has conspicuously developed higher and higher species, and fin ally, after an elapse of ages and ages, omitting some detailed histological differentiations, we behold the concrete result - man. The mind can scarcely perceive the slow progress in the advance ment of man, and the necessary ages required to produce man as we are, and as we find him today.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
