Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rambles and Reveries of a Naturalist His little volume of Natural History sketches has very little to do with opinions or speculations. The aim of the writer has been to describe the facts and phenomena of Nature as they have appeared to present themselves to his own observation. They are life-pictures rather than compilations. So far as systematic arrangement is concerned, there has certainly been an effort to treat each subject taken up in such a way as to lay at least a stepping-stone on the path to a more serious contemplation of the sciences of the text-book and the laboratory, but the primary intention of the author has been rather to awaken or to stimulate a love for Nature in the minds of some who may not as yet have suspected what wondrous and ever-varying beauty lies everywhere about us in ditch and pond, in rock and stone, in river and sea, on earth and in the skies. The same objects have been described by other and abler pens, but facts and laws present them selves in different aspects to different minds, and the ceaseless and diversified operations of Nature cannot be too frequently portrayed. Even those who would not care to claim the character of students of Nature are not unwilling to be considered lovers of Nature, and for such the plain and non-technical descriptions of a few of her secrets, by those who tell the story of what they themselves have seen and felt in her presence, cannot fail to possess some degree of interest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Half Hours With a Naturalist: Rambles Near the Shore Now, however, all these minute beings have been proved to belong to the Simplest forms of vegetable life, and the Locomotive Theory had to be abandoned. Among the beings which occupy the border-land be tween the animal and vegetable kingdoms, the sponges have of late years started into prominence. Relegated at first to the vegetable, but now conclusively proved to belong to the animal kingdom, the sponges are full of interest to the student of zoology. With the sponge of commerce we are all familiar enough, and it is scarcely necessary to state that it con Sists of the horny Skeleton alone, the whole of the organic matter having been removed. This organic matter is apparently nothing but a mere wash or film of gelatinous substance covering every filament of the Skeleton but when carefully examined it presents a most remarkable mixture of simplicity and complica tion. Without entering into the purely scientific details Of sponge-structure, I will endeavour to lay open some of the wonders which are hidden in one of the lowest forms of animal life.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Country Rambles: Being a Field Naturalist's and Country Lover's Note Book for a Year This volume consists Of notes on Natural History written in a plain and unvarnished style, and placed under the dates when they occurred, or general information which came under my notice during the closing year Of the Nineteenth Century. There are some entries which may appear triﬂing, but a true Observer Of Nature should not fail to set on record anything occurring in the Natural History world, as in the future that apparently un important note may be the connecting link which goes to complete a chain of some importance. There are many entries of Birds, Mammals, Butterﬂies, Insects, Fishes, Trees, Flowers, etc., which may be looked for at certain stated times in any year; thus this Diary will also serve as a Natural History Calendar. For the most part my notes refer to the sights and sounds seen and heard during the year in quiet, homely Hertfordshire, and these together with the other features introduced from time to time, will, it is hoped, be acceptable to those to Whom such a volume appeals, and if it imbues any indifferent observers with a love for Natural History, especially that Of our own Country, it will nor have been written in vain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hermit Naturalist On a frosty morning in the autumn of '93, when I was laboriously rowing against the strong current of the Delaware, above tide. Water, in search of a specimen of wild fowl for my cabinet, I saw the old hermit, sitting likea statue in his anchored boat. His shotgun rested on his knees, and he was evidently awaiting a shot at the wild-fowl that occasion ally y over at this season of the year. Aux ious to secure a nearer view of my hermit friend, I rowed towards him in such a manner as not to arouse his suspicions of my curiosity inspired purpose. I rowed but a short distance when I observed a fine ock of wild ducks y over me. At once I turned my attention to the lone sportsman. He also saw the game and was standing easily in his boat and taking care ful aim. As the ock passed directly over him he fired, when to my surprise and horror, he lost his balance, dropped his gun and madly grasped at the side of his boat as he went over board and disappeared from my anxious gaze, in the swiftly rushing current. Believing the current would carry him far below his anchored boat, I pulled with all my strength to intercept him as he came down stream. Soon his head appeared above the surface of the water, a hun dred yards or so from me. Increasing my efforts I soon rested in his way as the swift current swept him toward me, and I called to him to seize hold of my boat. He was an ex pert swimmer and soon grasped the stern of my boat, when I shipped my oars, and helped him aboard, chilled from the effects of his untimely bath. When safely seated in my boat, and having recovered his breath after his exhausting efforts. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Playtime Naturalist The writer of this book has a liking for intelligent English lads, just as some people have for blue china and etchings. He ventures to think the former are even more interesting objects. And, as the writer was once a boy himself, and vividly remembers the never-to-be-forgotten rambles and Observations of the Objects in the country; and, moreover, as he treasures up such reminiscences as the most pleasant and innocent of an active man's life, he thought he could not do better than enlist this younger generation in the same loves and the same pleasures. He has endeavoured to do his best for his human hobbies, and hopes their lives may be richer and sweeter and more.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Walks Abroad of Two Young Naturalists Though the majority of mankind are firmly convinced that The proper study of mankind is man, yet they are also generally disposed to admit that some devia tion from the various beaten tracks of existence is advantageous. Not very long ago one of the most accomplished of our medical men, Sir James Paget, in Opening a session of the Working Men's College, delivered an address on Recreation. In eloquent words he declared this to be an absolute necessity for our system, and he laid stress on the great value, in this capacity, of hunting fishing, shooting, and even of games of chance. There is probably no change more recreative to the mind and body, fatigued by long continuance of daily routine, than natural history. In its pursuit, physical exertion in the fresh air vies with change of mental pabulum, and the wonderful variety of inexhaustible nature brings to the mind a feeling compounded of astonishment and satisfaction that is highly recreative. Unfortunately, few can undertake the pursuit of natural history without some kind of assistance. A certain amount of book-knowledge is found to be indispensable, and yet, to the mind not accustomed to them, preliminary definitions and statements about unfamiliar objects are apt to prove so dry as to smother the nascent interest instead of stimulating and encouraging it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rambles of a Naturalist Round Folkestone: With Occasional Papers on the to and Are Added, Lists of Plants, Which Are and Land and Freshwater Shells This little volume, which I would fain hope, may prove an acceptable Vade-mecum to all lovers of Nature who may either reside in the district, or may honour us with occasional visits, has been published in consequence of the numerous enquiries made every season by our Naturalist-Visitors, as to what there is to be found, and where to search for it. Folkestone is, by this time, a. household word in the mouth of every naturalist; few places can compete with it in the variety and abundance of its "Common Objects." This is shown conclusively, I think, in the lists appended, wherein are enumerated about 700 species of Plants, and the same number of species of Lepidoptera. In the first part I have endeavoured to show, in language as free from scientific technicalities as possible, what natural objects of interest may be noticed in ordinary rambles in our own immediate neighbourhood. The second part consists of a selection of papers, some of which have been read before our Natural History Society, while the others are reprints from Science Gossip (by kind permission of the Editor). They all relate to the Folkestone Fauna and Flora. Part three contains lists of species known to occur here. It will be noticed that in them I have not given any localities.
