PUBLISHER'S NOTE 



'T^HE first volume of John Gvvyn Jeffreys' work on 

 British Coudiology, published in five volumes, 

 having been out of print for some time, the publisher, 

 in response to numerous requests, has re-issued a 

 limited edition under the title of Land and Fresh- 

 water Shells of Great Britain. 



This volume of Mr Jeffreys' work has attained 

 wide popularity among Conchologists, and the 

 publisher hopes that the new issue, now published 

 at a reduced price, may be welcomed by many who 

 do not possess Mr Jeffreys' larger work.
