Book excerpt: Excerpt from Connecticut State Entomologist Thirty-Ninth Report, 1939 Dr. Britton was born at Marlboro, Massachusetts, September 18, 1868. His family moved to a farm in Gilsum, New Hampshire. There, in a distinctly rural environment, the impress of which lasted throughout his life, Dr. Britton spent his early years. He attended the local schools and worked on the farm, raising the crops, caring for livestock, lumbering, making maple sugar, etc. Life was a bit rigorous, but conducive to integ rity, industry, frugality, and independence Of thought and action. He enjoyed it. Later he attended the New Hampshire College Of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts at Hanover (now the University Of New Hampshire at Durham), from which he received the degree of Bachelor Of Science in 1893. If later performance is any criterion, he must have been a good student. The year following graduation was spent at Cornell University studying under L. H. Bailey. Apparently at that time Dr. Britton's main interests lay in the field Of horticulture. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
