Excerpt from Half Hours at the Sea-Side: Or, Recreations With Marine Objects The object in compiling the following pages has been to render the sea-side visit (now almost an annual occurrence to most people) more interesting and instructive. Nearly all the creatures described are obtainable by the student at our principal watering-places. An attempt has been made to introduce the subject-matter in as methodical and scientific a manner as possible, so that each chapter might be a sketch of the natural history, classification, and affinities of the animals mentioned. In this manner, the young beginner will be brought into direct acquaintance with the first principles of zoology.
