Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Complete Writings Of Constantine Smaltz Rafinesque: On Recent Fossil Conchology The greatest difficulty under which the student of American Conchology labors, is the impossibility of obtaining access to the earlier writings on the subject. To remove this difficulty, a series of Reprints was commenced several years since, by the publication of the Complete Writings of Thomas Say. The present volume offers in an equally accessible form, all the known writings of Constantine Smaltz Rafinesque. It is believed to contain a re-print of all his contributions to Recent and Fossil Conchology, and fac-similes of all his published figures. It is the result of the research of several years, and contains extracts from works whose titles are not given in any of the Bibliographies, not even the exhaustive one recently published by Carus and Engellman. It must, however, be anticipated, that among the numerous publications of so prolific an author, some additional descriptions of Mollusca may yet come to light. All the works quoted, have been placed directly into the hand of the compositor, with directions to follow strictly the orthography of the original, a fact which must account for the greater part of the typographical errors which will be found in the work.
