The Naturalist of the Sea-Shore Synopsis

Excerpt from The Naturalist of the Sea-Shore: The Life of Philip Henry Gosse

For various statements in the earlier pages I am indebted to the still unpublished autobiography Of my grandfather, Mr. Thomas Gosse, and to the memory of my venerable uncle, Mr. William Gosse. Among those whom I have to thank for their kindness in helping me to pro duce this volume, i must mention two friends in particular, Mr. Francis Darwin, f.r.s who has allowed me to print a number of very interesting letters from his father; and Mr. Arthur E. Shipley, Fellow Of Christ's College. Cam bridge, who has very kindly revised the zoological portions Of the text.
