London: Macmillan. A full-leather bound children's book aimed at boys, dealing with natural history and using 2 fictional characters to help demonstrate in a more interesting way than by just citing facts.

The leather covers are dark blue w/gilt stamping, marbled end papers & page edges, and raised spine ribs. There is a stamped gilt emblem from King Edward's School stamped on the front cover and a bookplate pasted on the front end paper that shows that the copy was a prize given to an English student. The spine ends are a bit rubbed & the spine itself a little rubbed. There is slight foxing here & there inside. Overall, a tight, rather attractive copy. OUT OF PRINT. . Very Good. Leather.
