  • The moth book;: A popular guide to a knowledge of the moths of North America

    W. J Holland

    Hardcover (Doubleday, Page, & Co, March 15, 1941)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact.
