Abstract
IN the “Reminiscences of a Yorkshire Naturalist,” Prof. Williamson has left an autobiographical sketch, containing much that is of general scientific interest, and many delightful records of his own personal history. This simple story of a student's life, which Mrs. Williamson has done wisely to publish in its original form, takes us back to a period which, to the present generation of students, suggests the dawn of modern science.
The Reminiscences of a Yorkshire Naturalist.
By the late William Crawford Williamson Edited by his Wife. Pp. xii + 228. (London: George Redway, 1896.)
