Francis Trevelyan Buckland 1826 ? 1880 was an English surgeon, zoologist, popular author and natural historian. He was born in a noted family of naturalists. After a brief career in medicine he took an interest in fishes and other matters. He was one of the key members and founders of the acclimatisation society in Britain, an organization that supported the introduction of new plants and animals as food sources which was influenced by his interest in eating and tasting a range of exotic animal meats, a practice which he adopted from his father. Gilt edges to top of pages. Marks and a few notes in the text. Damp spotting to reverse covers. Bumped spine. Copyright © Nelson.
