About this book
Built for naturalists and sportsmen, Edwin Simpson-Baikie’s reference work pairs English terms with French and German equivalents for field sports and the natural sciences. Under “depth,” it distinguishes losing one’s footing from finding a place to stand, showing that everyday expressions sit beside technical vocabulary. At the entry for devil’s-bit, a scientific identification appears alongside several common names in the three languages. Elsewhere, cross-references direct users from one term to related entries.
