This version of the book is fully illustrated and contains over a
hundred photographs in black & white. Moths of the Limberlost
is a fascinating book written by the well-known American novelist
and photographer Gene Stratton-Porter. It paints a vibrant picture
of her delight in the moths as she loves, cares for, breeds and
studies the creatures. The first chapter is an introduction and the
second is an overview of the natural history of moths, however, it
is only marginally technical and she interweaves the chapter with
her own experiences. In the final thirteen chapters she focuses on
one moth per chapter, the moths that have most caught her interest.
It is partly an autobiography as she describes her experiences from
childhood - her delights and joys at successfully breeding them or
learning something new about them and her sadness when they die or
don't breed. It describes her family's help in this passion and the
friends she gained through the pursuit. It is a beautiful window
into the person she was and her love of nature.
