Book Description
Excerpt from A Manual of Natural History: Being a Companion to the Series of Pictorial, Diagrams Natural Specimens, Illustrative of Human Physiology, Zoology, Botany, Geology, and Mineralogy This work has been arranged in diagrams, composed either of natural Objects, whenever this was possible, or Of good coloured figures, representing with the greatest accuracy the types which we wished to illustrate, Of their natural size; and we have always given the preference to those Objects which come most frequently under the notice of children. In the twenty diagrams which compose this work, we have at tempted to illustrate all branches of natural history, by teaching children the most indispensable elements, or those which were most suitable to excite their curiosity, and to lead them to the desire of knowledge, from the special interest that they possess.
