Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual for the Study of Insects
The Manual for the Study of Insects, published in 189 5, was written to meet the needs of teachers of Entomology when that science was in its infancy as an academic study. It was well received and accomplished its purpose, and there has been a continuous call for it since; it is now in its eighteenth edition. Owing to the rapid development Of the science it became necessary to revise the book and I began this before my retire ment in 1914. However, so great has been the growth of Entomology that this intended revision Of the Manual resulted in a new textbook, An Introduction to Entomology.
