Letters and Extracts from the Addresses and Occasional Writings of J. Beete Jukes, M.A., F.R.S., F.G.S.

Abstract

HOW few among us—when his glass is run—would care to have the story of his life from year to year, even from his boyish days, writ down and published to the world—indeed, how very few would be found worthy of more record than “born, lived, died.” Now and again, however, one meets with a man whose career in life is not only lifted above the monotonous hum-drum existence of ordinary mortals, but who, both by his life and writings, attracts our admiration and regard.

Letters and Extracts from the Addresses and Occasional Writings of J. Beete Jukes, M.A., F.R.S., F.G.S.

Edited, with connecting Memorial Notes, by his Sister, with a Portrait. (London: Chapman and Hall, 1871.)
