Evolutionist (The) At Large.
By Grant Allen.
"Mr. Allen's method of treatment, as explanatory of the scientific revolution known as evolution, gives a sort of personality and human character to the trout or the strawberry blossom, which invests them with additional charm, and makes many of his pages read more like a fanciful fairy tale than a scientific work.... Mr. Allen's essays ought to open many a half-closed eye."—Manchester Examiner.
