The Natural History of Lincolnshire; Being the Natural History Section of Lincolnshire Notes & Queries, from January, 1896 to October, 1897

Description:

Scarce (not in Freeman). Rev. E. Adrian Woodruffe-Peacock (1858-1922), secretary of the Lincolnshire Naturalists Union, produced 8 quarterly 16-page Natural History sections as an annexe to the Antiquarian portion of Lincolnshire Notes & Queries, between 1896 and 1897. No further Natural History sections were published, 'on account of the Publisher not receiving sufficient support to enable him to continue to publish without charge this section …. In which so few took the interest that was desired.' - Author's Preface. These Natural History sections are here published in book form, with a Title Page, Index, and List of Contents. Facsimiles of the original wrappers are bound at the rear.
