POPULAR HISTORY OF MOLLUSCA; or, Shells and their Animal Inhabitants. By Mary Roberts. Royal 16mo, with twenty coloured plates by Wing. Price 10s. 6d.
"This little volume forms another of the excellent series of illustrated works on various departments of Natural History, for which the public is indebted to Mr. Reeve.... When we add, that the plates contain no fewer than ninety figures of shells, with their animal inhabitants, all of them well, and several admirably, executed, and that the text is written throughout in a readable and even elegant style, with such digression in poetry and prose as serve to relieve its scientific details, we think that we have said enough to justify the favourable opinion we have expressed."—British and Foreign Medico-Chirurgical Review.
