Book Description
Excerpt from Cassell's Natural History, Vol. 2 Comparatively few of the fiesh-eaters are of direct use to man, at any rate while alive, yet one member of the group - the Dog - is the most useful of all domestic quadrupeds. Though derived from one of the most savage of all - the Wolf. The Ferret, the Cheetah and the Cat are also more or less domesticated; but they come far below the Dog in amiable qualities, and in value to man. Below their value in service comes the use of their most beautiful skins; and still lower down the scent, derivable from a few species. Yet from these two last sources our fair ones seek to derive new charms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
