Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Conchologist
To enumerate the many kind acts of friendship in the assistance rendered to this work, is a grateful task. Should I forget to name any such individual, I trust it will be imputed to the treachery of my memory, rather than to the want ofa sense of the obligation which I feel.
