About the book

"Buffon's Natural History. Volume 10 (of 10)" by Buffon is an encyclopedic work published between 1749-1804. This monumental collection spans 36 volumes covering the natural sciences of its era, from quadrupeds and birds to minerals and geology. Buffon's ambitious project challenged biblical timelines by asserting Earth's ancient age, introducing secular views on origins that paved the way for evolutionary thought. Volume 10 focuses on quadrupeds, part of the series that made comparative anatomy central to understanding nature's design.
