Fabre's passion for his subject matter is evident throughout the book, making it an engaging and informative read.The victim, a Beetle, is covered at all points with a suit of armour which the sting is unable to penetrate. The joints alone will allow the poisoned lancet to pass. Those of the legs do not in any way comply with the conditions imposed: the result of stinging them would be merely a partial disorder which far from subduing the insect, would render it more dangerous by irritating it yet further.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
