Excerpt from The Common Objects of the Sea Shore: Including Hints for an Aquarium
This little work is simply a popular account of the "Common Objects of the Sea-Shore," and is restricted to those objects which every visitor to the sea-side is sure to find on every coast. For descriptions of those creatures which only inhabit certain localities, and those whose lives are passed in the deep water, requiring the dredge, the net, or the drag to bring them to the light of day, the reader is referred to those magnificent and comprehensive works that have been written for the purpose of illustrating particular branches of science.
