LIST OF WORKS
PUBLISHED BY
L. REEVE & CO.
NEW SERIES OF NATURAL HISTORY FOR BEGINNERS.
⁂ A good introductory series of books on Natural History for the use of
students and amateurs is still a _desideratum_. Those at present in use
have been too much compiled from antiquated sources; whilst the figures,
copied in many instances from sources equally antiquated, are far from
accurate, the colouring of them having become degenerated through the
adoption, for the sake of cheapness, of mechanical processes.
The present series will be entirely the result of original research
carried to its most advanced point; and the figures, which will be
chiefly engraved on steel, by the artist most highly renowned in each
department for his technical knowledge of the subjects, will in all
cases be drawn from actual specimens, and coloured separately by hand.
Each work will treat of a department of Natural History sufficiently
limited in extent to admit of a satisfactory degree of completeness.
