A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Sea Shells of the Jersey Shore

Among the thousands who visit the New Jersey coast during the summer months, there are no doubt many who would take pleasure in becoming better acquainted with the sea shore and its many forms of life.

The desire of the author to assist in such an introduction to nature, has resulted in this little book.

In the following pages all the commoner shells of our shore are illustrated and described; there may be other interesting species found. In that case the author will gladly name them if sent to him, and include them in future editions.

The illustrations are partly original, but they are mainly photographic reproductions of those of Goulds "Invertebrata of Massachusetts."

Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

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. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
