This first American edition of the first of what eventually became four series. It includes Buckland's popular essays on: 'A Hunt in a Horse-pond; 'Rats'; 'The Cobra di Capello'; 'Fish and Fishing'; and 'My Monkey Jacko.' Known as the People's Naturalist, Buckland was trained as a medical doctor but spent a great part of his time as a fisherman, antiquary, and naturalist. In 1867 he was appointed to the congenial post of Inspector of the Salmon Fisheries. "Genial, sagacious, enthusiastic, always prone to look at the humorous side of his subject, Buckland aimed rather at enlisting the sympathies of others in his favourite studies than at acquiring the name of a profound writer on science. He held the ordinary usages of society in supreme contempt when they appeared to interfere with his zeal for experiment and research in natural history. His friends love to recall him - now wading into some icy cold river to capture salmon for the purposes of artificial breeding - now smoking and in his shirt sleeves as he arranged curiosities at South Kensington - and now again humorously dilating in his house in Albany street about the habits of the pet animals which generally ran loose through his rooms" - From the 'Dictionary of National Biography' Scarce. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!
