我们有几个明显的原因，使这一有用的期刊之前，我们的读者的通知。首先，美国自然主义者和科学作家普遍抱怨，并非完全没有理由，大西洋两岸出版社出版的许多最重要的作品在这个国家的知名度远远低于它们的价值。我们的个人经验使我们相信这种抱怨是有根据的。最近，我们向皇家学会、剑桥大学和一所苏格兰大学的图书馆申请借阅《美国博物学家》和克拉克的《自然中的心灵》，但没有成功。“我们怀疑，在英国图书馆里很少能找到下列书籍的副本，即阿加西去美国后的全套著作，宾尼的“美国陆生软体动物”，古尔德和宾尼的“关于马萨诸塞州无脊椎动物的报告”，图尼和霍姆斯的“南卡罗来纳州的化石”，塞缪尔的“新英格兰的鸟类”，德凯的“纽约的鱼类和爬行动物”，关于太平洋和其他铁路调查的报告，以及在过去几年中由马什、莱亚、莱迪、霍尔、怀南·贝尔德、库斯、帕卡德、斯卡德、勒·孔特、斯廷普森、韦里尔和其他许多作家发表的对科学的众多贡献。美国博物学家。一本受欢迎的自然史插图杂志。Vols. 1，2和3，从1867年3月到1870年2月。（马萨诸塞州塞勒姆）皮博迪科学院。伦敦：Trübner。）
WE have several distinct reasons for bringing this useful periodical before the notice of our readers. In the first place, American Naturalists and writers on science generally complain, and not altogether without reason, that many of the most important works that issue from the Transatlantic press are much less known in this country than their merits deserve. Our personal experience leads us to believe that this complaint is well founded. We lately applied in vain to the Libraries of the Royal Society, of the University of Cambridge, and of a Scottish University, for the American Naturalist and for Clark's “Mind in Nature ;” and we suspect that very few copies of such books as the following are to be found in English libraries, namely, a complete set of the works of Agassiz since he went to America, Binney's “Terrestrial Mollusks of the United States,” Gould and Binney's “Report on the Invertebrata of Massachusetts,” Tooney and Holmes's “Fossils of South Carolina,” Samuel's “Birds of New England,” Dekay's “Fishes and Reptiles of New York,” the reports on the Pacific and other Railway Surveys, and the numerous contributions to science published during the last few years, by Marsh, Lea, Leidy, Hall, Wynam Baird, Coues, Packard, Scudder, Le Conte, Stimpson, Verrill, and a host of other writers.The American Naturalist.A popular illustrated Magazine of Natural History.
