Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Insect Adventures

Of Souvenirs Entomologiques from which these studies are taken, was a French school-teacher and scientist whose peculiar gift for the observation and description of insect life won for him the title of the insects' Homer. A distinguished English critic says of him, F abre is the wisest man, and the best read in the book of nature, of whom the centuries have left us any record. The fact that he was mainly self-taught, and that his life was an unending struggle with poverty and disappointment, increases our admiration for his wonderful achievements in natural science.
