Popular Natural History (Classic Reprint)

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from Popular Natural History It is now just twenty-five years ago when I was asked to write, for the use of the young, a book on Zoology which should be tolerably comprehensive, intelligible, and free from the conventional errors which had been handed down from one writer to another. Since that time the book has passed through many editions, and now takes an entirely new shape, embodying the most recent discoveries in Zoology, being much enlarged in size and illustrated with many additional engravings. If it should be as well received as its predecessors I shall be most satisfied. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
