Abstract
VICTOR HEHN'S book, the result of years of labour, first appeared in 1870. A second edition was called for in 1874, to which the essay on the horse was added, and in which replies to critics fill most of the preface. A third edition was issued in 1877, a fourth in 1883, and a fifth in 1887. Hehn died on March 21, 1890, leaving his book in the hands of Prof. O. Schrader, editor-in-chief of the three editions which have appeared since that date.
