Fish

Mr. Jardine was one of the foremost naturalists in 19th Century England. He traveled extensivelyd and compiled to fill 17 or 18 volumes of originally hand-colored copperplate engravings of all the animals known at that time in the world. An accomplishment that earned him many honors. They were published in London and Scotland by Lizars. He is still known and admired the world over.
