"Illustrative Anecdotes of the Animal Kingdom" by Samuel G. Goodrich is a collection of anecdotes about various animal species written in the mid-19th century. The work aims to showcase the characteristics and habits of prominent animals without delving into deep scientific descriptions. Goodrich organizes these accounts according to a classification system that underscores the diversity and significance of the animal kingdom. At the start of the publication, Goodrich outlines the purpose of the volume, which is to present well-documented stories that highlight the behaviors of notable animal species, starting with the classification of the animal kingdom into vertebrates and invertebrates. The introduction elaborates on key categories, such as mammals, birds, reptiles, and more, emphasizing the intelligence and traits of the animals included. He begins to discuss specific species within these categories, offering intriguing anecdotes that illustrate their unique behaviors and interactions with humans, setting the stage for a deeper exploration into the lives of these animals throughout the rest of the work.
