Excerpt from Wonders of Marine Life: With Ninety-Five IllustrationsEverywhere the eye turns throughout the universe it finds food for overwhelming amazement at the wonders of the natural world.

No fairy legend or romance is so interesting as the genuine marvels which science has slowly unfolded to the knowledge of man, spe cially so during the last hundred years, during which time science has made its most remarkable advances.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
