Book Description
Excerpt from Harmonia Ruralis, or an Essay Towards a Natural History of British Song Birds, Vol. 1: Illustrated With Figures the Size of Life, of the Birds, Male and Female, in Their Most Natural Attitudes; Their Nests and Eggs, Food, Favourite Plants, Shrubs, Trees, &C. &C., Faithfully Drawn, Engraved, and Coloured After Nature Birds, considered in respect to the elegance of their shape, and diversity and brilliancy of their colours, are doubtless superior to any other class in the brute creation. Where can we find a more beautiful piece of mechanism than in the wing of a Bird displayed, or even in a Single feather, when minutely examined 9 There is an easy and elegant sweep in the outline which circumscribes a Bird, perhaps not to be found in that of any other animal, and the beauty'ul arrangement of the feathers in every part claims our admiration. 't is pity to observe, that in most figures of Birds, the feathers are either wholly disregarded, or else most vilely mangled, most wickedly deranged.

Book Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
