Animals of Hudson’s Bay (1882)

Johann Reinhold Forster

Animals of Hudson's Bay is a book written by Johann Reinhold Forster and published in 1882. The book is a detailed account of the animals that inhabit the Hudson Bay region of Canada. Forster was a German naturalist who accompanied Captain James Cook on his second voyage to the Pacific in the late 18th century. He wrote extensively about the animals he encountered during his travels, and Animals of Hudson's Bay is one of his most notable works. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different group of animals, including mammals, birds, fish, and insects. Forster provides detailed descriptions of each species, including their physical characteristics, behavior, and habitat. He also includes illustrations of many of the animals, which were drawn by his son, George. Animals of Hudson's Bay is an important historical document, providing a glimpse into the wildlife of Canada during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the natural history of North America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
