Excerpt from The Naturalist's Guide in Collecting and Preserving Objects of Natural History: With a Complete Catalogue of the Birds of Massachusetts
The great need of a good illustrated work to guide young naturalists in collecting and preserving objects of natural history has induced me to prepare the present Manual. In this attempt I hope I have been in some degree successful. I have spared no pains to bring together, in a comprehensive form, the results of many years of experience in collecting and preserving objects of natural history, both for private cabinets and for scientific museums.
No popular work of this kind has before been published in America. Throughout the present work I have endeavored to encourage the young to engage in the ennobling study of Natural History, and to join the band of young naturalists so rapidly increasing in our land.
I trust the reader will not by any means keep the teachings of this book secret, as some taxidermists are wont to counsel, but spread it broadcast among those who would profit by the information I have herein attempted to convey. It is intended for the Naturalist, whoever and wherever he may be; and as it comes from a colaborer in the common field, it will, perhaps, be well received.
