By the way, do you know that Bernard d'Abrera is often reading our forum to see what is said about him !!!

What makes such a book so expensive is the small market and the immense time put into the production... I fully agree with that ! A+, Michel

I hope it is not going to be printed in China, as the quality will be so poor ... Anywhere I believe the price is going to be really high !

Hi Dunc,
For me too, Robert Gooden is a good souvenir as I did work there as a student in 1973 ! I did learn a lot on breeding butterflies, and taking care of scorpions and bird-eating spiders with a guy there called Paul Embden. If anyone know him, I would be pleased to get his email ? I was able to improve my english as well ...
A+, Michel

For me, before I could dream of the famous entomologists of the past, I was listening to my elders such as Georges Jeannot, Jacques Plantrou, Bernard Turlin, Claude Herbulot and others met at the monthly meeting at the Paris Natural History Museum. Then certainly Eugène Le Moult fascinated me, and I have met his widow Madame de Fontenille living avenue des Gobelins in Paris, and for who I have been setting butterflies when I was a young boy. She offered me for sale a complete french edition of the Seitz which I obviously could not afford at the time, but it has been a dream for most of my life to obtain a copy, and it was only 35 years later that I purchase my own Seitz, found on ebay, and coming from the famous Peugeot family ... Lucien Berger, former curator at MRAC in Tervuren, and Jacques Hecq have certainly contributed to my fascination and studying of the Cymothoe Nymphalids from Africa !
A+, Michel

It is impossible for me in France to get access to your product with the link provided, so it can probably be improved ...

The other day on the forum, we had pictures upside down, and now it is sideway ... Maybe too much of my favorite alcool ?
