"Everyday Doing's of Insects" is a fantastic guide to all things insects, looking at a variety of subjects from why insects are certain colours, to how they fly, breathe, and much more. This timeless guide is perfect for anyone looking for an introduction to the world of insects, and it would make for a fine addition to collections of allied literature. A wonderful introduction to the topic for enthusiasts of all ages. Contents include: "How Insects Grow", "Why Insects Grow", "The Meaning of Colour", "How Insects Protect Themselves", "The Meaning of Pattern", "How Insects get their Colours", "Senses of Insects", "How Insects Breathe", "Wings and Flight", "Stings and Poisons", "Instinct", "Caravans and Sleeping-Bags", "Insects which show Lights", "Musical Instruments", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on entomology.
