Opis

Excerpt from Fauna Orcadensis, or the Natural History of the Quadrupeds, Birds, Reptiles, and Fishes, of Orkney and Shetland The utility Of provincial histories Of all kinds is now gene rally acknowledged to be great, as these are certainly the ma terials from which a general structure, either Of civil, military, or natural history, is to be raised. In no branch of history is this more apparent than in that Of Nature. She must be sought and described on the spot, and her various produc tions investigated in their proper climates, soils, and beds. Hearsay descriptions Of natural subjects are seldom to be de pended ou, unless taken from the most attentive Observers, and even these, to be convincing, must be made on the spot, as change Of climate or soil sometimes makes such alterations in the appearance Of natural Objects, as may deceive even adepts in the science.
