  • The World by the Fireside ; or , Pictures and Scenes From Far-off Lands

    Paperback (HardPress Publishing, Jan. 10, 2012)
    Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

As they read, they must admire the wisdom of the Creator in fitting every animal for the clime it has to live in, as well as in providing for its wants.The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.
