Excerpt from Wild Life of the World, Vol. 1: A Descriptive Survey of the Geographical Distribution of Animals
Dutch descent that settled in Bedfordshire more than a century ago, died on the 15th of April 1915, aged 66, 'while this work was in the press. It had been long in preparation, and the sheets had received his final revision, so that it remains as he left it, with the exception of this preface.
It is a general natural history in which the animals are described according to their geographical distribution, and the treatment of the subject on these lines was not new to him; in fact, his Geographical History of Mammals, published in 1896, is held by many to be his most original and important contribution to scientific literature. These volumes, however, have a wider scope. They are on a more popular basis, and deal with animal life of every kind, vertebrate and invertebrate, in all aspects throughout the world; and, of necessity, prominence is given to those groups which are of most importance in denoting the changes in the lands and seas during comparatively recent geological epochs.
