Book excerpt: Excerpt from Curiosities of the Church: Studies of Curious Customs Services and Records In writing this book, my desire has been not merely to produce an entertaining volume, but one of an instructive character, throwing light on the manners, customs, and everyday life of bygone times, which have a connection with the English church. It would be impossible to prepare a book of this class without having recourse to the works of other authors, more especially some of the older writers. I have tried, however, to render every acknowledgement to those to whom I am indebted for information. My best thanks are due to the Editors of the following periodicals for kindly allowing me to reproduce from their pages some of the articles I wrote for them, and which now re-appear here, viz., the British Workwoman, Chambers's Journal, Christian World Magazine, Home Chimes, and the Leisure Hour. A number of the papers were printed simultaneously in several leading provincial journals. I have only to add that if this volume meets with a welcome from the press and the public similar to that which has been accorded to my former works, I shall have every reason to feel grateful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneer in the strange art and ambiguous science of zo phagy-that is, of studying animals by eating them-British natural historian FRANCIS TREVELYAN BUCKLAND (1826-1880) was a wildly popular speaker and writer of the Victorian era. In his classic four-volume Curiosities of Natural History, published between 1857 and 1872, he shared his love of creatures exotic and mysterious with readers who devoured his charming and erudite essays much in the same way he devoured his animal subjects. "If there is one person that I would have expected to have captured a sea serpent in the 19th century for the sole purpose of eating it, it would be Frank Buckland," writes cryptozoologist Loren Coleman in his new introduction to Buckland's series. One of the founding grandfathers of cryptozoology, the discipline that investigates animal mysteries, Buckland was not "a wild-eyed 'true believer' in anything strange," insists Coleman, but brought, instead, "a skeptical, open-minded approach" to his work. Indeed, here, in the "second series" of Curiosities of Natural History, Buckland's erudition is clear in his animated discussions of, among many other things, a dish of fossil fish, a gamekeeper's museum, the gypsy mode of cooking hedgehogs, and practical uses for whale bones. This new edition, a replica of the original 1871 seventh edition, is part of Cosimo's Loren Coleman Presents series. LOREN COLEMAN is author of numerous books of cryptozoology, including Bigfoot!: The True Story of Apes in America and Mothman and Other Curious Encounters.
