Book Description
Excerpt from West Coast Shells: A Familiar Description of the Marine, Fresh Water, and Land Mollusks of the United States, Found West of the Rocky Mountains The kind reception given to my little book on the "Common Sea-shells of California," has induced me to prepare this larger work, embracing a wider territory, namely, that part of the United States lying west of the Rocky Mountains. The present volume includes descriptions of all the species mentioned in the former one, together with many others of the more minute and uncommon marine shells which are found from Puget Sound or Alaska on the north, to San Diego on the south. It also describes the laud and fresh-water mollusks of California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah and Nevada, thus making it of use as a reference-book for the interior, as well as along the sea-coast. While not claiming absolute completeness, I trust it will be found sufficient to enable students and collectors to identify all the specimens which they will be likely to' gather within the limits already mentioned. The nearly two hundred engravings have all been drawn from nature, expressly for this work, and while materially increasing its cost, they will, I trust, even more increase its value. Some additional matter respecting the authors of the specific names, a Glossary, and a brief Key for the Analysis of Shells, will be found near the close of the book. The work is written in a familiar style, but is believed to be scientifically accurate. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition. We do, however, repair the vast majority of imperfections successfully; any imperfections that remain are intentionally left to preserve the state of such historical works.
