A work on such a subject cannot fail, I am sure, to be acceptable to my young readers, enhanced as it is by the series of beautiful illustrations, from the pencil of THOMAS LANDSEER, whose talents in the characteristic delineation of animals are universally admitted to be of the very first order." -Preface.
