Book Description
Excerpt from How Man Conquered Nature When we say man in this story, we mean men and women the human race. Just as when we say the lion is a fierce beast, we mean the lioness as well as the lion. Some of the animal families with which man started the race have vanished from the earth. They have been killed off by man, or have died out from other reasons. A few others, like the horse, dog, cow and sheep, have changed very much, because man has taken charge of them, as we shall see later. But what we call the Wild animals remain practically the same now as when the story starts, many thousands Of years ago.
