Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the European Fauna Our knowledge of the present and past fauna of Europe is as yet insufficient to indicate with precision the original homes of its component elements, but I hope that the lines of research laid down here, and the method of treatment adopted, will aid zoologists and geologists in collecting materials for a more comprehensive study of the history of our animals. I trust also that a fresh impulse will be given by the publication of this book to the study of the Geographical Distribution of Species. Collectors of Beetles, Butterflies, Shells, and Fossils may derive some useful hints by its perusal and thus direct their studies, so as to add, by accuracy in observation, to our knowledge of the former geographical revolutions which have moulded our islands and continents. To geographers, a survey of some of the more important changes in the distribution of land and water in past times - based upon the composition of our fauna - will be interesting. The subject, however, is a complex one. I have ventured to indicate a suitable method of treatment, and as such this attempt to elucidate the history of the European fauna should be received.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from European Animals: Their Geological History and Geographical Distribution The method of treatment of the subject discussed in this work was adopted by me when delivering the Swiney Lectures on Geology last year, at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Dr. Wallace's remark that we may be enabled, by an accurate knowledge of any group of birds or insects and of their geographical distribution, to map out the islands and continents of a former epoch, encouraged me to attempt to apply his ideas in dealing with our own Continent, and to extend them to other groups of animals. Professor E. Forbes was the first to recognise the significance of the geographical distribution of living animals in deciphering their past wanderings, and I have approached the investigation of the geological history of our fauna in the manner indicated by him. I thought that this method would convey to the general reader, as well as to the student, a clear conception of the nature of the problems to be solved. I trust that this work will stimulate the researches of the student of systematic Biology and that it may also prove acceptable as a contribution to the past geographical history of our Continent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Natural History of Animals The study of Nature is the basis of Religion; and in the primitive ages of the world, previous to the epoch of revelation, mankind had no other guide to direct them to a knowledge of the existence and attributes of the Deity, than the contemplation of his works. These, indeed, exhibited such evident proofs of his power, his wisdom, and his goodness, as were sufficient to convince rational creatures, that a self-existent and infinite Being was the source and origin of all existence. This St. Paul so well understood, that he condemns the Gentiles, because, after having recognised the Supreme Being in the works of the creation, they neglected to worship him, and considers them as inexcus able; Because, says he, the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead.
