No previous book has attempted to cover the history of animal illustration as comprehensively as this one. The animals illustrated come from every part of the planet and the artist represent every country that has contributed to this art. Included are strikingly colored insect pictures from Holland, exquisite French birds and mammal engravings, and beautiful if anthropomorphic pictures from German popular natural history books.»
