To present accurate drawings and pleasing pictures is not the only or
primary object of this work, but rather to impart lessons of practical
importance and daily application in an attractive form, and to open up a
subject which, judiciously applied, is calculated to prove to the young a
most interesting and instructive study. The design is to show the "Utility
of Animals to Man," both in their services during life, and in their uses
after death; and to deduce results calculated to excite interest and
admiration, and evince the wisdom and goodness of God in the subsistence,
comfort, and social advancement of his creature Man. Price, in one volume,
