The Entomological Magazine 1836 Vol 3 Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Entomological Magazine, Vol. 5 The entomological magazine is ended - In offering to the public the Fifth and last Volume, and at the same time bidding my readers farewell for ever, I have thought it desir able to relinquish the editorial plural, and address my brother entomologists in the more egotistical but less assuming singular. Whether this work has or has not accomplished its proposed object, - the advancement of entomology, - whether it has been conducted well or ill, is for my readers to determine. Of its merits or demerits its avowed Editor cannot speak. In the pages of the volumes before me many papers occur which seem to require a few comments. I will make these comments as concise as possible. I am well aware how irk some is the reading of Prefaces, and that the only merit they can by chance possess is brevity.
