though it is, has failed to provide texts of more than a handful of
Darwin's books. If you want to know what Darwin said about
barnacles (still an essential reference to cirripedists, apart from
any historical importance) you are forced to search shelves, or
wait while someone does it for you; some have been in print for a
century; various reprints have appeared and since vanished." -Eric

First published in 1922, as the second edition of a 1903 original,
this book was written by the British naturalist and clergyman
Leonard Jenyns (1800-93), later known as Leonard Blomefield. The
text was edited by Sir Francis Darwin (1848-1925), the son of
Charles Darwin, and published posthumously. It contains a calendar
of observations on plants and animals kept by Jenyns in Swaffham
Bulbeck, Cambridgeshire. This book will be of value to anyone with
an interest in the writings of Jenyns, botany, zoology and the
history of science.
