Excerpt from Nature Study Rambles, Round St. Andrews IT has been my good fortune to have the Opportunity of studying the Natural History of the district round my native city under conditions which could not but be conducive to the awakening Of enthusiasm. TO this has to be added the privilege I have very often enjoyed, of acting as an instructor of students and teachers in the course of explorations of this region. The principle animating those excursions has been the study of Nature rather than the pursuit of Science, - the acquisition of the explorer's comprehensive outlook rather than the specialist's concentration. I am not ignorant of the pleasure which indoor studies can afford, and the intense satisfaction which follows discovery as the reward of research in the laboratory; but for the great mass of those who wish to enjoy the refreshment and stimulus that come of intimate association with Nature, the excursion into the Open is by far the most direct way to reach so desirable an object.
