Excerpt from Rambles of a Naturalist Round Folkestone: With Occasional Papers on the to and Are Added, Lists of Plants, Which Are and Land and Freshwater Shells This little volume, which I would fain hope, may prove an acceptable Vade-nwcum to all lovers of Nature who may either reside in the district, or may honour us with occasional visits, has been published in consequence of the numerous enquiries made every season by our naturalist-visitors, as to what there is to be found, and where to search for it. Folkestone is, by this time, a household word in the mouth of every naturalist; few places can compete with it in the variety and abundance of its Common Objects. This is shown conclusively, I think, in the lists appended, wherein are enumerated ahent 700 species of Plants, and the same number of species of Lepidoptera. In the first part I have endeavoured to show, in language as free from scientific technicalities as possible, what natural objects of interest may be noticed in ordinary rambles in our own immediate neighbourhood.
