Summary Note

“This is a book of nature showing how living things on the earth and under the earth, in the air, and in the water, have been appreciated by naturalists, physicists, explorers, sportsmen, novelists, essayists, gardeners, and farmers, and also by mere ordinary men and women who stand and stare and wonder. Anyone who has read Mr. Watson’s Enigmas of Nature will realize that this is an unusual and deeply interesting book.” [dust-jacket].
