BINGLEY’S NATURAL HISTORY;
A Library of Pleasing Anecdote and Graphic Description, treating of the habits and peculiarities of nearly every
known species of Animal Life, Birds, Beasts, Fishes, Insects, Reptiles, Mollusca and Animalcule, etc.
By BEV. WM. BINGLEY, Jk. M.
The accomplished scholar, eminent divine, and popular author of “Memoirs of British Quadrupeds,’’ “Animal
Biography ’’ “ Useful Knowledge,” etc., etc.
This work is the result of years of close observation and laborious research on the part ot an ardent lover and
most careful student of Nature, aided by the extensive labors of Cuvier, Buffon, Wood, Dallas. Wilson, Audubon,
Bonaparte, Nuttall, Agassiz, Jardine, Brewer and others. The work is written in a style that any one who can
read can understand.
This subject is one of imm/zw range and inexhawdtbte interest to every inquiring mind, speaking, as it does,
of nearlv every existing species of Animal Life that the Great Creator has made to live upon the face of the
earth. here we find the whole Monkey family (man's first cousin, according to Darwin), from t e powerful and
savage Ouran-Outan to the mischievous Squirrel and White-nosed species. Nearly ALL OF NATURE THAT
BREATHES is herein minutely described, and their thousand and one singular pecul J Parities and curious habits in
the moat fascinating manner forcibly illustrated by means of the most interesting anecdotes, some ludicrous in the
extreme, many marvelous, others thrilling in their scenes of terrible danger, and others still full of fond affection, etc.
It is a booa that proves a treasure in every household and to evkby member of it. It is also the only
really comprehensive low’-nriced w ork on the subject published in the country.
« ft is a l>ook that, considering its size, nearly 1100 rery large octavo pages, the wealth of its illustrations, some
1070, and the excellence of its mechanical execution, must commend itself at once to all as remarkably low in price
