Wild Nature Won by Kindness/Preface

From Wikisource

Preface to the Fifth Edition.


Two short chapters, one describing the life of an Ant-lion, and the other the habits of a tame Toad, were added to the second edition, which was in other respects a reproduction of the first.

The present edition has been improved by the adoption of a number of illustrations which were designed for the German translation of this book.
