NEW SERIES OF NATURAL HISTORY 
FOR BEGINNERS. 
*%* A good introductory series of books on Natural History for 
the use of students and amateurs is still a desideratum. Those at 
present in use have been too much compiled from antiquated sources ; 
whilst the figures, copied in many instances from sources equally 
antiquated, are far from accurate, the colouring of them having be- 
come degenerated through the adoption, for the sake of cheapness, 
of mechanical processes. 
The present series will be entirely the result of original research 
carried to its most advanced point ; and the figures, which will be 
chiefly engraved on steel, by the artist most highly renowned in each 
department for his technical knowledge of the subjects, will in 
all cases be drawn from actual specimens, and coloured separately 
by hand. 
Each work will treat of a department of Natural History suf- 
ficiently limited in extent to admit of a satisfactory degree of 
completeness.
