Geology, astronomy, and botany particularly were subjects of eager investigation and discussion, not only among college professors and students but among Southern planters, politicians, professional men and even their wives and daughters. Zoology and chemistry also received much attention. The evidence shows that a disproportionate share of the college curriculum in the Old South was given over to the natural sciences rather than to the classics. This study of the attitude of the people of the Old South towards the natural sciences makes an original and important contribution to our knowledge of the Southern civilization that was destroyed by the Civil War." ; front endpaper excised ; spine sunned ; else G/FAIR.
