Book Description
Excerpt from Essays on Natural History: Chiefly Ornithology Should it be remarked that I have commented somewhat severely on certain parts of the Bio graphy of Birds, I answer, that I should only have taken as much notice of that work as would have been necessary to prove that the new theory could not be depended upon, had not the partisans of the author given me ample cause of provocation. Had they continued under arms, it was my intention to review the whole of the Biography of Birds, together with the author's Introductory Address. The controversial papers which have appeared on different subjects in Mr. Loudon's Magazine are not included in these Essays. Had mine been introduced, those of my opponents must equally have been admitted, for the sake of perspicuity.
