Fossils of All Kinds : Digested into a Method, Suitable to their Mutual Relation and Affinity

Omtale

To the naturalist John Woodward (c.1665–1728), fossils were 'much neglected', and he spent much of his life studying them. He was particularly interested in their classification, a topic he addresses in this illustrated work, published in 1728, which is still considered an important early contribution to natural history.
