Opis

Excerpt from The Pageant of Nature, Vol. 1 The Pageant of Nature is a book of the words for those who wish to enjoy the play of wild life which has no beginning and no end. I am not going to say that a programme is necessary, and that unless you have knowledge you will not enjoy Nature. But animals and plants are engaged on their own business, much indeed of which is furtive and very far from being thrust on our notice. The more we know the more we shall see, the more discover and the more enjoy. The enjoyment of Nature goes hand in hand with Nature study. There are many ways of studying Nature. F ir'st and oldest, there are the lore and lure of the hunter and sportsman. I am not going to decry pursuits merely because I have no mind for them. Hunters and sportsmen were the first naturalists and have laid broad and deep-foundations of our knowledge. But their modes and their objects are falling out of fashion - to my mind fortunately, because I cannot see any rational distinction between the excitement of boys chasing a cat in a garden suburb and sportsmen at an otter hunt. In our pages you will not hear the hunter's horn, or get advice on the breeding of pheasants. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
