Excerpt from One Thousand Objects for the Microscope
The number of objects enumerated is so great, that only a brief space could be assigned to each, except by increasing the size and price of the volume. It has been my desire not to come into competition with any other book for the Microscope, and I hope that I have succeeded. In selecting objects for enumeration, I have endeavoured to confine myself to those that are common and easily examined, excluding all sections, injections, or preparations requiring an experienced hand.
To all who have aided me with drawings, suggestions, or assistance in any form my thanks are due; and, if these pages should induce but a few readers to appeal to works of greater pretensions, our labour will not have been altogether in vain.
