The amateur naturalist’s handbook by Vinson Brown published by Little, Brown and Company, Boston, 1948. First Edition, Eleventh Printing. Hardcover with dust jacket. This book is a comprehensive introduction to the natural life sciences intended primarily for the use of young people, but equally helpful to the amateur naturalist, nature study teacher, nature guide, or any person of any age looking for a thorough but easy-to-understand handbook of natural history. The book is divided into four sections: The Beginning Naturalist, The Student Naturalist, The Advanced Student Naturalist, Becoming an Explorer-Naturalist. Each section delves further into the secrets of animals, plants, minerals and weather, in a progression which results in a fine sense of knowledge and accomplishment, and also rapidly develops a powerful and satisfying hobby with a serious purpose.
