Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Butterfly Hunters in the Caribbees The author deems it well to state that in the following account of the adventures of two young naturalists in the West Indies he has simply taken his heroes over ground with which he is thoroughly familiar, and has reproduced in their experience scenes and incidents that have been a part of his life as an exploring naturalist. He has required nothing of the credulity of his readers; no fruit has been gathered out of season, nor flower picked at an unnatural time of year; no animal or plant has been collected out of its regular geographical range, nor any fact of nature been recorded that is not known to belong to the regions traversed. In a word, scientific accuracy has been the main guiding principle in the production of this work, and if it has thereby lost something of the startling nature usually imparted to such books, the author feels that his readers, the older young people and the younger old people, will not regard this as a real loss, but rather a gain in the interest of truth.
