Abstract
ABOUT twelve months ago (NATURE, vol. xlix. p. 220), in a short notice of the two first parts of this work, we heartily recommended it as worthy of the notice of our readers. On a careful perusal of the two volumes now before us, which equal one-third of the projected series, we still feel quite justified in our recommendation; the illustrations are for the most part extremely good, and the text is not only interesting, but it is also intelligently written.
The Royal Natural History.
Edited by Richard Lydekker Vols. i. and ii. (London: Frederick Warne and Co., 1893–94.)
