Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the
1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in
affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text
and artwork.
The Convention on Biological Diversity set a world target: "to
achieve by 2010 a significant reduction of the current rate of
biodiversity loss". The EU went further, aiming to halt
biodiversity loss by 2010. In March 2010, the charity Butterfly
Conservation held its 6th International Symposium on 'The 2010
Target and Beyond for Lepidoptera'. This book, edited by John
Dover, Martin Warren and Tim Shreeve and with a Forward by Sir
David Attenborough, is a collection of papers from that meeting.
The book documents the failure to achieve the 2010 targets and the
urgent need to redouble conservation efforts. Papers presented on
'Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation', 'The Science of
Conservation Management', 'Landscape-scale Conservation' and
'Future Challenges' illustrate some of the problems we face, but
also demonstrate that, with the application of the right tools and
knowledge and with sufficient determination, butterflies, moths,
and their habitats can have a secure future.
John Dover Wilson's New Shakespeare, published between 1921 and
1966, became the classic Cambridge edition of Shakespeare's plays
and poems until the 1980s. The series, long since out-of-print, is
now reissued. Each work is available both individually and as a
set, and each contains a lengthy and lively introduction, main
text, and substantial notes and glossary printed at the back. The
edition, which began with The Tempest and ended with The Sonnets,
put into practice the techniques and theories that had evolved
under the 'New Bibliography'. Remarkably by today's standards,
although it took the best part of half a century to produce, the
New Shakespeare involved only a small band of editors besides Dover
Wilson himself. As the volumes took shape, many of Dover Wilson's
textual methods acquired general acceptance and became an
established part of later editorial practice, for example in the
Arden and New Cambridge Shakespeares.

Entertaining and informative, this 1956 anthology paints a vivid
picture of the world in which Shakespeare lived. Using the
playwright's life as the framework - his birth, his education, his
move to London, his life in theatre, his death - the book uses
selected extracts from key Elizabethan publications to embody the
atmosphere of this period. From sport to superstition, from
festival to fashion, from the plague to playhouses, the significant
features of the age are described through its prose, providing the
reader with first-hand accounts of the conditions in which
Shakespeare's masterpieces were created. All chapters are prefaced
with illustrative Shakespearean quotations; the collection
representing a commentary on the work as well as the life of
Shakespeare. All texts have been modernised to assist the reader,
and a glossary is included which explains names, unfamiliar words
and difficult passages.
