Abstract
“A SON OF THE MARSHES” is now so well known that any new book by him is sure to find readers and admirers. He does not, of course, make important contributions to science. His writings merely record the impressions produced upon him by various aspects of nature in which he happens to be especially interested. But his impressions are so thoroughly true, and are presented in so vivid a style, that they may always be studied with pleasure. Even his talk about very common things has a certain charm, for he observes them accurately, and brings out by skilful touches their relations to other things that are not quite so intimately known. The present volume has all the characteristics of his previous books, and should do a good deal to foster in the mind of “the general reader” a liking for some of the more attractive facts and ideas of natural history.
