Audubon's Butterflies, Moths, and Other Studies

Very good copy in mylar-protected dust jacket.

"Anyone knowing as little about butterflies as I do about birds may find Audubon's lepidoptera as attractive as his bright, active, theatrical birds are to me," Vladimir Nabokov wrote in his December 28, 1952 review for the New York Times. "Ford has published drawings of butterflies and other insects in a handsome volume with additional pictorial odds and ends and an account of Audubon's life."
