By SYDNEY J. HICKSON, M.A. (Cantab.), D.Sc. (Lond.), F.Z.S., Fellow of Downing College, Camb. _With 2 Maps and 36 Illustrations. 8vo. 16s._ "Dr. Hickson ranks as the naturalist-historian of Malay Archipelago, and is an undoubted authority on corals and the general fauna of tropical seas. But he is more than a naturalist--he is an ethnologist and a folklorist of high value. This work is a valuable, conscientious, and pleasantly written addition to the libraries of all who, with 'Childe Harold,' 'converse with Nature's charms, and view her shores unrolled.' |
