" None will read its introductory chapter without advantage, and few will read 
the volume through without enjoyment. . . . What constitutes the book's chief 
charm is the marvellously simple, yet quite scientific, style which runs through it ; 
the food for thought and future study which it affords ; and the truly philosophic 
glow which lights up its every page. . . . The work forms a charming introduction 
to the study of zoology the science of living things which, we trust, will find its 
way into many hands." Nature.

The illustrations in the book deserve the highest praise : they are numerous, accurate,
