Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Discovery and Transportation to St. Petersburg of the Berezovka Mamoth: Translated and Described in a Paper Read Before the Torquay Natural History Society, June 14th, 1905
It is impossible in the short time at my disposal to read a translation of the report in full, but by means of extracts from that report, following the route of the expedition, we will, I hope, not only get a better idea Of the immense difficulties undertaken and overcome in order to Obtain one specimen for a Natural History Museum, but also get an insight from a naturalist's point of view of that great expanse of country forming part Of Asiatic Russia known as Siberia.
