Abstract
THE author of the book under review displays more than a speaking acquaintance with the natural history of both the Old and the New Worlds. Since his boyhood days in Scotland, Mr. McCowan has been an ardent student of Nature in the field, and his migration to Canada many years ago merely served to intensify his curiosity concerning the why and wherefore of all things animate and inanimate. He is no armchair naturalist.
