Publisher's Synopsis
A Natural History of Fossils Volume 1, Part 1 is a book written by Emanuel Mendes Da Costa and originally published in 1757. The book is a comprehensive guide to the study of fossils, including their classification, identification, and geological significance. Da Costa's work is notable for its detailed descriptions and illustrations of various fossil specimens, as well as its discussion of the historical and scientific context of fossil research. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different aspect of fossil study, such as the anatomy and morphology of fossils, their distribution and stratigraphy, and their use in the reconstruction of ancient environments and ecosystems. Da Costa's Natural History of Fossils is an important early contribution to the field of paleontology and remains a valuable resource for scientists and enthusiasts interested in the study of prehistoric life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
