The Bruton Memorial Book of Nature Study

Résumé du livre

This book was prepared as a memorial to F.A. Bruton, who directed instruction in nature study for Newfoundland teachers in the annual summer school from 1926-1929. The book was started by Bruton, and was to be used as a textbook in the island's natural history in Newfoundland schools. Bruton completed only chapters 1-8 before his death, and so the book was then completed by Norman M. Johnson. Volume one contains the first eight chapters completed by Bruton on the fauna of Newfoundland. Volume two contains the last 11 chapters completed by Johnson on the flora and geology of Newfoundland.
