This collection will bring together a selection of works by
travellers studying natural philosophy as well as natural history.
The set will cover a wide geographical spread, including accounts
from Australia, Asia, Africa and South America. The style of
writing and subject matter are also diverse. Some offer more
reflective writing, mingling scientific observation with romantic
musing and high style, others have a more specific focus - such as
Bates description of Mimicry in butterflies in Bali. The first
volume includes a general introduction to the collection and each
succeeding volume also includes a new introduction by the editor,
which places each work in its historical and intellectual context.
