| CONTENT DESCRIPTION | |||
| Abstract | This work, originally intended as companion volume to Barton's popular Elements of botany (1803), was apparently never published under this title. A work of wider scope, A discourse on some of the prinicipal desiderata in natural history, based on a lecture given by Barton to the Phildelphia Linnaean Society on June 1807, was published less than a year after this broadside was issued and probably utilized material meant for Elements of zoology. Manuscript list of some of the subscribers, including Rubens Peale of Peale's Museum in Philadelphia, is appended to the document. | ||
