Buffon's Natural History, Volume 02 (of 10)
Georges Louis Leclerc, comte de Buffon and James Smith Barr
Buffon turns from the heavens to the living earth in this second volume, continuing the vast survey that made his name across Europe. His elegant prose treats the history of nature as a story worth telling well, not merely cataloged. Enlightenment natural science with real literary flair. A further step through one of the most ambitious books of its century.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
