Excerpt from The Canary: Its History, Varieties, Management, and Breeding This well-known songster, whose attractive qualities of form, plumage, and song, claim for it a place in every household, had its origin in the bright and pleasant climate of the Canary Islands. It was introduced into Europe in the commencement of the sixteenth century, and its arrival is thus described; - "A vessel which, besides its merchandise, was bringing a number of these birds to Leghorn, was shipwrecked on the coast of Italy, opposite the island of Elba, where these little birds, having been set at liberty, took refuge. The climate being favorable they increased, and would certainly have become naturalised, had not the wish to possess them occasioned their being caught in such numbers, that at last they were extirpated from their new home.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
