Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essay on Classification Having, however, made no essential alterations in this Essay on Classification, it may not be out of place for me to repeat here such parts of the preface to the first edition as may explain the special purpose of the treatise, and also the frequent allusions, which could not have been omitted without remodelling the whole, referring to chapters which belong to other parts of the work. The preface to the complete work above alluded to states that, in consequence of the liberality of the subscription in America, "this volume, which, according to the original plan, was designed to be one of special descriptive Zoölogy, contains, in addition to a description of the North American Turtles, a review of the classification of the whole animal kingdom. I have also endeavoured to make it a text-book of reference for the student, in which he may find notices of all that has been accomplished in the various departments of Natural History alluded to, and which I trust young naturalists will take, not only as an indication of what has been done, but as an earnest of what remains to be done in the fields now open to our investigation.
