Omschrijving

Sir William Flower is a biography written by Richard Lydekker and published in 1906. The book chronicles the life of Sir William Henry Flower, a prominent British zoologist and museum curator who lived from 1831 to 1899. The book explores Flower's early life and education, including his time at University College London and his apprenticeship with the surgeon and anatomist Richard Owen. It then follows Flower's career, which included appointments as the director of the Natural History Museum in London and the president of the Zoological Society of London. Throughout the book, Lydekker highlights Flower's contributions to the field of zoology, including his work on the anatomy and classification of mammals, his research on the extinct dodo bird, and his efforts to improve the collections and exhibits at the Natural History Museum. The book also delves into Flower's personal life, including his marriage to Georgina Rosetta Smith and his relationships with other prominent figures in the scientific community. Overall, Sir William Flower provides a detailed and engaging portrait of an important figure in the history of British zoology and natural history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
