Comments that 'Mr. A. E. T. Watson's Fur and Feather series [...] is by no means purely scientific. The programme of his series embraces not only the natural history, but the shooting and cooking of the animals described [....] This series is an odd idea, but it is well carried out, and the volumes should be useful' (285). |
